Abstract

As the Internet of Things (IoT) opens up new business opportunities, firms are trying to understand the impacts of the IoT revolution on their supply chain. Despite the tremendous interest by supply chain managers to leverage the IoT, there are still a paucity of studies that integrate the management side of supply chain with the technical side of the IoT. This chapter attempts to fill the current gap in research. This chapter discusses capabilities of the IoT-based supply chain applications. Then, it presents a conceptual framework of the IoT applications essential for smart supply chain. Finally, this chapter discusses technical and managerial challenges faced by supply chain managers in implementing the IoT.
