Abstract

ABSTRACT This paper analyzes how Industry 4.0 transforms supply chain collaboration and design. Therefore, we identify and analyze 151 academic articles. The study uncovers holistic strategic changes Industry 4.0 and associated technologies imply for cross-company collaboration in supply chains. These include changes in the initiation of buyer-supplier transactions, information exchange and handling, and how Industry 4.0 transforms relationships and cooperation. Subsequently, implications for aspects concerning supply chain design, such as ecosystem development are given. The systematic literature review is the first to analyze the body of literature on supply chains in Industry 4.0 to synthesise how cross-company collaboration is transformed in detail. The paper provides a comprehensive overview of the current state of research and develops several suggestions for future research and managerial practice, such as the role of risk-benefit sharing and information sharing, allowing to develop new forms of collaborative value creation in Industry 4.0.
