Adoption of new technologies in logistics and supply chain processes is crucial for the continued effectiveness of supply chains. Technology has the potential to address the issue of logistics and supply chain visibility throughout the supply chain, from raw materials through manufacturers and end users. When properly implemented, improved forecasting of inventory levels, employee productivity, adequate accountability, and higher warehouse savings are all possible. Additionally, businesses must upskill their supply chain workers and recruit and manage digital talent in cross-functional teams.
The Handbook of Research on Promoting Logistics and Supply Chain Resilience Through Digital Transformation discusses the ways in which global logistics and supply chains have been severely disrupted by digital technology transformation. The book helps policymakers in designing a resilient framework that can absorb external shocks like the COVID-19 pandemic and also enhances the performance and operational capability of the logistics and supply chain network. Covering topics such as oil and gas maintenance support, stakeholder management, and business optimization strategy, this major reference work is essential for logistics professionals, business leaders and executives, IT managers, government officials, manufacturers, students and faculty of higher education, librarians, researchers, and academicians.
