One of the best ways for businesses to give exceptional customer service is to make efficient supply chain management a strategic goal. Supply chain management (SCM) stands the process of actively managing supply chain actions in order to provide a competitive advantage over the long term and maximise the value of the customer. Sensors in IoT devices assess certain aspects of theworld around them, such as, temperature, location movement, handling, humidity, movement speed, light levels and other environmental parameters. GPS and other technologies are used for Internet of Things devices. It can track, validate products and deliveries in the supply chains. IoT in supply chain management is becoming increasingly important, and it has the potential to create a strategic competitive advantage. IoT-powered supply chain management is gaining traction as a viable solution to supply chain management's control and visibility issues, while also adding value and solving other challenges. It can also keep track of improving quality control across the storage conditions for the products and supply chain. Supply chain components must be prepared to place their belief in wearables makers to protect their data in order for wearables to continue to benefit the supply chain. The problems and applications of IoT on supply chain management are surveyed and summarised in this study
