Abstract: The proposed research work contributes toward the analysis of various technologies of Industry 4.0 (I4.0) relevant to logistics management (LM). The study presents a holistic view of I4.0.T diffusion in LM and is intended to provide an assessment of the current literature work. The internet of things (IoT) is the most prominent technology under the umbrella of technologies in I4.0 contributing toward efficient and speedy last-mile delivery (LMD). The review article examines the progress of the research area over the past 11 years and highlights the technological requirements and challenges that the introduction of I4.0 is facing for LM. This will help researchers and industries assess the influence of I4.0.T to make logistics services more efficient, reliable, and risk-free in the changing 21st century. This review paper will present the current scenario of technological advancement in the field of logistics and provide future research directions.
