Aligning Digital Supply Chain and Twin Maturity Models for Transforming Logistics Networks

This study examines the mutual dependencies between Digital Supply Chains (DSCs) and Digital Supply Chain Twins (DSCTs) within the context of technological transformation and logistics networks evolution. We conducted a systematic literature review to align the development stages of DSCTs and DSCs using maturity models, identifying commonalities in their evolution. While DSCTs are widely recognized as a cornerstone technology for resilient DSCs, their implementation in practice remains limited. The synthesis results in a unified six-stage maturity model, aligning the parallel evolutions of DSCs and DSCTs, and demonstrating their interdependence at each level of development.

Abstract

This study examines the mutual dependencies between Digital Supply Chains (DSCs) and Digital Supply Chain Twins (DSCTs) within the context of technological transformation and logistics networks evolution. We conducted a systematic literature review to align the development stages of DSCTs and DSCs using maturity models, identifying commonalities in their evolution. While DSCTs are widely recognized as a cornerstone technology for resilient DSCs, their implementation in practice remains limited. The synthesis results in a unified six-stage maturity model, aligning the parallel evolutions of DSCs and DSCTs, and demonstrating their interdependence at each level of development.
