Abstract
Discussions about Industry 4.0 and its relationship with supply chains are a topic that has been growing over time because in theory this new technological revolution has the ability to transform industries and their business models completely as there are new ways to offer value to customers. The development of new existing technologies will allow supply chains, mainly in manufacturing companies, to change their paradigms, achieving a competitive advantage over others. The main objective of this article is to investigate the current state of Industry 4.0 in supply chains, exploring the technologies that enable it, the current uses in the processes, its benefits and challenges. For this purpose, a systematic literature review was conducted, in addition to a bibliometric analysis.
