Title: | Mobile supply chain management in the Industry 4.0 era | Authors: | Barata, João Rupino Da Cunha, Paulo Stal, Janusz |
Keywords: | mSCM; Mobile supply chain management; Mobile technologies; Industry 4.0; Systematic literature review | Issue Date: | 2018 | Publisher: | Emerald | Project: | This paper is financed by national funding via the Foundation for Science and Technology and by the European Regional Development Fund (FEDER), through the COMPETE 2020 – Operational Program for Competitiveness and Internationalization (POCI). | Serial title, monograph or event: | Journal of Enterprise Information Management | Volume: | 31 | Issue: | 1 | Abstract: | Purpose – We identify avenues for future research in mobile supply chain management (mSCM) in the advent of Industry 4.0. Design/methodology/approach – A Systematic Literature Review was used to identify, classify, and analyse current knowledge, identify trends, and propose recommendations for future research. Findings – Other research fields, such as operations, production, industrial engineering, and computer science seem to have a head start in research into Industry 4.0. Several avenues are suggested for investigation under a IS lens. Research limitations/implications – Despite the care taken in the Systematic Literature Review, the language (English), the selected keywords, and selected databases represent a natural limitation. Practical implications – With Industry 4.0 at the top of the agenda of managers and countries, it is important to identify relevant research avenues. Originality/value – A gap between the extant literature on mSCM and new concerns raised by Industry 4.0 is presented, and some research opportunities to close those gaps are proposed. | URI: | https://hdl.handle.net/10316/115184 | ISSN: | 1741-0398 | DOI: | 10.1108/JEIM-09-2016-0156 | Rights: | openAccess |
