Convergence of Industry 4.0 and Supply Chain Sustainability


Book Description

In the ever-increasing landscape of industry and technology, companies worldwide face an unprecedented challenge. The relentless march of progress, epitomized by the revolution of Industry 4.0, demands adaptation for survival and competitiveness. The integration of technologies such as the Internet of Things (IoT), blockchain, artificial intelligence, additive manufacturing, and robotics has irrevocably altered manufacturing and supply chain operations. What was initially a quest for augmented quality and production has now become an inexorable pursuit of sustainability. The United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (UNSDG) 2030 have left no room for exemptions, making sustainability an imperative at the heart of every business strategy. The answer to this pressing challenge lies within the pages of the book, Convergence of Industry 4.0 and Supply Chain Sustainability. It serves a meticulously curated collection of research that illuminates the intricacies of implementing Industry 4.0 and the ramifications for sustainable supply chains. Our work focuses on the associated challenges and opportunities encountered by the adoption of Industry 4.0 in supply chain management (SCM).
