Abstract

In recent decades, global supply chains have grown in size and complexity, emphasizing efficiency, cost, and closeness to markets. The coronavirus pandemic disrupted activity worldwide, with supply chain (SC) disruptions being particularly severe. A pandemic of this size has caught corporations and whole industries off guard, sending a cascade of rippling effects across their supply networks and enterprises. The COVID-19 outbreak has impacted the economic climate for many organizations worldwide, underlining the importance of responding to, adjusting to, and implementing crisis management strategies to weather difficult times. This study investigates the effect of the COVID-19 pandemic on SCs in terms of disruptions, problems, and trends. As a result, the goal is to investigate such difficulties and propose mitigation methods based on IoT (internet of things) for sustainability and viability of the supply chain management disruptions among buyers and distributors.
