Abstract
During recent years have both practitioners and academic people tried to focus on Digital Supply Chain (DSC) as a phenomenon which has its own constructs, structure, limitations and possibilities, mostly in order to magnify the indispensable need for transformation due to the growing dominance of digital technologies. Despite all valuable efforts, DSC has still a long way ahead to be known, understood and implemented all over a supply chain. Therefore, this study presents a literature review of 107 papers on DSC to clarify its definition in addition to provide insight on the most prominent components of a DSC framework. It is done by updating previous literature reviews and conducting a classification and thematic analysis on the reviewed papers. Moreover, in order to have more specific look on building blocks of DSC, a framework for digital supply chain is designed considering the value stream in DSC. The framework consists of several layers, including DSC strategies, enablers, processes, data management and analytics, DSC flows and DSC features. These components work seamlessly to provide virtual values for customers and other stakeholders. Finally, managerial implications and future research directions are remarked.
