 Uncovering Industry 4.0 technology attributes in sustainable supply chain 4.0: A systematic literature reviewSaoussane Srhir, Anicia Jaegler and Jairo R. Montoya‐Torres Business Strategy and the Environment, 2023, vol. 32, issue 7, 4143-4166 Abstract: Industry 4.0 technologies are transforming supply chain management from a linear model to what is known as supply chain 4.0, where operations are integrated, and flows stream in multiple directions. The study aims to explore the attributes of Industry 4.0 technologies and their impact to drive sustainability values. The findings were generated after a systematic literature review of 71 articles on various sustainability dimensions and multiple Industry 4.0 technologies. The study provides a review of the most studied technologies in the sustainable supply chain context and categorizes their attributes as well as their relevance to sustainability. The results show that advances in technologies such as Blockchain and Internet of Things have increased the potential for supply chains to reach sustainability values. The study expands the existing literature and encourages businesses and the scientific community to investigate the power of Industry 4.0 technologies for sustainability. It presents limitations and directions for future research.
