The use of\nmillions of ever-cheaper sensors also provides a treasure trove of\ndata that empowers the use of analytics in supply chain managem ent and\nin tactical and strategic planning in organizations.\n\nThis pres entation presents an overview of the transformations that are\nalready tak ing place in supply chain management as a result of\nIoT-based systems. It examines the technologies\, business processes\,\nuse cases\, and impacts of the IoT on both local and extended supply\nchains. It goes on to prese nt major issues around IoT in the supply\nchain and proposes a set of majo r research questions that are deemed\ncritical for both practitioners and academics seeking to understand\nand deploy IoT in organizations.\n DTSTART:20200124T153000Z DTEND:20200124T170000Z LOCATION:Gerri C.
