Digital Supply Chain Twins (DSCT) are gaining more and more attention both in science and in practices. They are considered to be one of the most disruptive technologies in logistics and supply chain management. In the literature, there are a variety of DSCT benefits in the case of planning and control a logistics system. Some of these potentials could also be highly suitable for the use case of sustainable and resource-efficient logistics, which, however, have been insufficiently explored in research so far. This paper will investigate to what extent the DSCT can be used to enable sustainable network planning and which potentials the DSCT implies for the predictive planning within logistics systems. Building on a literature review and interviews with industry experts a case study was conducted at a business partner in the automotive industry. |
