Popis: Companies primarily use tools based on information systems such as ERP, WMS, APS, TMS or other similar existing systems to keep their logistics flows under control. The Internet of Things arrival (IoT) was a revolution in the field of Information and Communication Technologies (ICT), with the aim of extracting, transferring, storing, processing and sharing the necessary information at every logistics activity. In addition, for a better collaboration and interoperability improvement in the Supply Chain, it is important to automatically communicate and share each operation related to the logistics flows to the actors involved. In this paper we give a general overview of the use of IoT in the supply Chain Management to ensure the convenience of its activities and that it is thus collaborative and communicative.
