Abstract: Abstract Supply chain visibility is a commonly strived after ideal which recently has gained significant attention in times of globalization and digitalization. Historically, the complexity of supply chains as well as their operational inefficiency in the absence of digital capabilities resulted in a lack of visibility. Recently, novel technologies around the topics of data gathering, processing, and output have emerged which will lead to new opportunities in the future. In addition to providing transparency for all stakeholders, visibility of supply chains can optimize operational efficiency and minimize risks. However, despite technological advancements, supply chain visibility is not a standard which can be easily achieved as many different parties are involved in global supply chains. Now is the time for all stakeholders to work jointly toward their common goal of a transparent supply chain network with a single source of truth.
