Abstract: Abstract New practices, tools, and technologies are revolutionizing supply chain operations, making them more efficient. Cutting-edge technologies such as AI, blockchain, big data, and augmented reality enhance supply chain management procedures. Supply chain organizations are leveraging these technologies to optimize inventory levels, implement smart contracting, enhance traceability and visibility, increase process speed, and improve transparency. This book chapter investigates the technological revolution poised to give supply chain management a competitive edge. It also explores how outdated systems can be modernized and integrated with advanced technology portfolios. Over the next three to five years, digital and advanced supply chain management technologies will assist people with settling on better choices or decision-making. The study examines the impact of past industrial revolutions on the supply chain industry and how they have paved the way for the current technological revolution. It explores the potential opportunities and challenges of the current technological revolution and provides recommendations for organizations to embrace these changes and remain competitive.
