Hi everyone !
I am a student in the final year of my industrial economy engineering with focus on sustainable supply chain management at Jönköping University Sweden. I have recently taken a course on Innovative production system development where Industry 4.0, automation and Innovation Management was on focus. This subject interested me a lot and I am wondering if anyone can suggest a bachelor thesis on the implication of Industry 4.0 on the Supply Chain Management ? At the same time if you have heard of Logistics 4.0 and Supply Chain Management 4.0 that combines the indsutry or production to the Supply Chains of the future. I am trying read about the topic but all help and information from you will be highly appreciated.
Kind Regards,
Karandeep Singh

Dear Mr. Chatha,
The mentioned problem is gaining lots of attention; you should expect to see actual working systems/products as a widespread practice in less than two years. Interestingly, Industry 4.0 concepts is also finding applications in supply chain risk management aspects other than sustainability. Technologies such as Data Analytics, AI, Blockchain are also found contributing to the domain independently, without providing a comprehensive Industry 4.0 perspective. Though the domain is not matured enough in terms of scholarly articles, the following papers may help you to understand the basics and scope for further research.
