Abstract: Tracking and tracing devices can provide real-time information from the supply chain and enable digital transformation in the logistics and supply chain industry. In this connection, Logistics 4.0 refers to the potential for information technology and smart connected assets to be used in logistics in the same way as the Industry 4.0 concept which has been applied in operations and manufacturing. This paper analyses current tracking and tracing-focused applications that can provide value for logistics operations through a case study approach.
