Abstract
The customer-oriented approach is actively developing within the global trend of the modern industrial revolution that is Industry 4.0. The focus on customer interests has led to cooperation and integration in supply chains, improving their efficiency and increasing transparency, awareness, and trust. However, an issue emerging in this scenario is that conventional supply chain management (SCM) procedures are unable to identify the potential proposal for a particular user. Modern businesses need to build integrated supply chains, which require well-developed infrastructure and easily available complementary services, relying on logistics as a networking technology. Supply chains of this generation grow from traditional individual desynchronized economic relations (linear models with some feedback and the simplest network configurations) to scalable, adaptable, harmonized partner networks. The logistics potential allows additional income by reducing the total costs of participants in the network, thus increasing the competitiveness of companies; this can be implemented based on new models of interaction in the current digital environment through, firstly, system integration. Our goal consists of identifying the essential characteristics of system integration and substantiating the methods for its implementation in the digital economy. The study is based on the analysis of global best practices, considering the reports from leading consulting companies and competent analytical agencies. We have confirmed that the role of a virtual system integrator of supply chains belongs to logistics platforms; the effects of a transition to platform business models are discussed in detail.

The nature of the connection between the network logistics system and open innovation models can be studied on the basis of the logic of an open innovation engineering model; both open-innovation engineering channels and determining ways of operating the channels through conceptual experiments are considered by JinHyo Joseph Yun [7]
Summary
The complexity always implies the need for integration, choosing the technologies for mutually profitable cooperation and interaction formats, including those in supply chains that are adequate to the economic conditions. Modern supply chains have a complex and multilevel structure, the main characteristic of which is a clear and logical sequence of actions for each participant [4]. This gives us reason to talk about the network architecture of supply chains in which each participant (company or separate structural unit) provides each other with products or services, adding a certain consumption value to the product. The supply chains of many companies include agreed terms for supplying
