Abstract

This study explores the impact of digital transformation within the Supply Chain 4.0 framework on upstream and downstream enterprises. By enhancing analytical capabilities and optimizing management, digital tools have significantly improved the integration and resilience of supply chains, fostering operational innovation and efficiency. This research highlights key challenges during digital transformation, including insufficient technological readiness, data security concerns, and employee resistance to change. This study argues that enterprises must invest systematically in digital infrastructure, data governance, and corporate culture. It specifically emphasizes tailored strategies for upstream and downstream businesses, such as enhancing collaboration and communication, nurturing an innovative culture, and boosting digital skills. Additionally, government policies and industry collaborations play a crucial role in the successful digital transition of supply chains. Through studies, this research demonstrates how effective digital transformation strategies can significantly enhance supply chain efficiency and market competitiveness, providing valuable directions for future research and practice in supply chain management.
