“…The paper also discussed potential research opportunities in the fresh food supply chain and highlighted the challenges that must be addressed when integrating these technologies. Taghipour et al [23] emphasized the impact of digital enablers in enhancing the performance of various entities within a supply chain, and investigated how digitization can influence the profitability of these activities both individually and collectively. The authors underlined the importance of collaboratively managing supply chain processes that are autonomous and decentralized.…”

“…Architecture Challenges. To increase the performance of the whole supply chain, the management processes needs to be autonomous, decentralized and handled collaboratively which allows each constituent to achieve its own desired plan and constraints autonomously and at the same time to pursue the optimum as a whole [23]. As a result, it is fundamental to design and agree upon a functional DT architecture that can aid the development of both general components such as data exchange interfaces and application specific services.…”

The growing complexity of worldwide supply chain networks, together with the increased occurrence of disruptive events stress the need for a focused introduction of digital support tools. Digital twins have encountered an increased interest from both industry and research for their capability to provide useful services in the short term. The number of contributions on digital twin-based methodologies for system design and production planning and control experienced a significant increase, while applications to supply chain management remain scarce. However, the recent investments in digitization and the concrete need for short-term planning capabilities mean digital twins can effectively aid enterprises in the management of their value chains. This paper provides an overview of the existing contributions regarding digital twins for supply chains, and gathers useful insights on both the current level of development and the future research challenges.

“…These include data privacy and security concerns, environmental considerations, ethical and legal ramifications, workforce and skill disruptions, and social and cultural impacts. Consequently, organizations must make informed decisions regarding how much they integrate digital enablers into their operations to avoid disturbing the delicate equilibrium (Taghipour et al 2022).…”

Additive manufacturing (AM) has emerged as a transformative force, reshaping traditional manufacturing methodologies and fostering agility and efficiency to respond effectively to disruptions and fluctuating demands. The research landscape has witnessed a surge in interest and exploration of AM, encompassing diverse applications such as automotive spare parts, electronics, medical accessories, and fashionable consumer goods. The fundamental objective of AM is to establish seamless collaboration within manufacturing functions, particularly in the face of disruptive events, by facilitating the rapid availability of required products or components through the concept of digitally holding inventory. The integration of AM has engendered substantial improvements in the resilience of supply chains, although it has also introduced unique challenges and implications. This review paper aims to provide a comprehensive overview of studies conducted in the past two decades, elucidating the transformative impact of AM on supply chain resilience within manufacturing organizations. This study employs a bibliometric analysis to identify prominent trends and thematic patterns within this research domain. Furthermore, a narrative review analysis is presented, examining the framework of AM processes across specific industries and delineating how AM has revolutionized traditional manufacturing procedures. The study highlights the tangible benefits of AM implementation and sheds light on the challenges encountered during its adoption. By offering a comprehensive review, this paper seeks to contribute to the existing knowledge base and serve as a foundation for future research endeavours in this evolving field.
