The impact of digital technology adoption on supply chain performance: A case study of sonatrach

Abstract

This study rigorously examines the transformative impact of digital technology adoption on supply chain performance within the specific context of Sonatrach, Algeria. It directly addresses the pivotal question of how the strategic integration of advanced digital technologies reshapes performance outcomes. A quantitative, correlational research design is employed, analyzing survey data from 150 supply chain management professionals at Sonatrach. Pearson's correlation and regression techniques rigorously assess the relationships between adoption levels of IoT, remote sensing, Big Data analytics, and ERP systems and key performance indicators. The findings emphatically demonstrate significant, positive correlations between Big Data analytics and ERP adoption and enhanced supply chain performance. These results underscore the crucial role of data-driven decision-making and integrated systems, while also revealing vital areas for optimized IoT deployment strategies to maximize their potential
