Abstract
The purpose of the article is to study the key aspects of the formation of digital supply chains, directions for the use of digital technologies in logistics and management of global supply chains. To achieve the goal of this study, meth-ods of analysis and synthesis, comparison, generalization, structural-logical methods were used. The article considers the essence of the concept of a digital supply chain, explores the accumulated theoretical and practical experience in this area, presents an analysis of trends in logistics and supply chains, clarifies the aspects of the use of various digital technologies in the process of digital transformation of supply chains, focuses on the defining characteristics of a digital supply chain, as well as the main levers of supply chain improvement 4.0. Both the benefits and the possible risks of introducing a digital supply chain are identified. The factors influencing the complexity and the cost of the necessary digital solutions are indicated and the directions for further trans-formation of supply chains based on digital technologies are presented. Mod-ern technologies have been characterized that allow digital transformation of supply chains, which include artificial intelligence, virtual integration with plat-form-based suppliers, predictive analytics, blockchain, etc. Our research con-cluded that the most important benefits of a digital supply chain are increased flexibility, efficiency and productivity. The digital supply chain presented as a dynamic and integrated network is characterized by a continuous flow of in-formation that facilitates automation, adds value, improved on work processes and analytics, and generates insights, thereby improving customer service and organizational sustainability. It is emphasized that the main goal is not the very fact of introducing digital technologies into the relevant business process-es, but what opportunities these technologies generate in order to create a new way of doing business, provide a new digital business strategy necessary to increase competitive advantages and create a positive customer experience through innovative new products and services.
