Despite advances in Industry 4.0 technologies, supply chains have fallen short in enabling agile supply chain responsiveness. Conceptually, the enablers of connectivity, visibility, and transparency are well defined, yet their operationalization remains a challenge. In this paper, we analyse a successful case study in the domestic electrical machinery industry and derive from it a proposal for data integration lifecycle phases and socio-technical domains to structure the challenges that need to be overcome as a prerequisite for digital supply networks’ visibility towards transparency and predictability.
