Abstract :
The aim of this study was to make the supply chain smarter with the IoT approach in companies active in the field of information and communication technology in Tehran province.Methods: The present study is part of applied research according to the goals it pursues and is a descriptive and exploratory research in terms of the work process. The statistical population is experts familiar with the subject of research (managers, experts and professors). They were interviewed by non-random and purposeful method until theoretical saturation. The statistical sample was determined by snowball method. In this study, two open-ended and researcher-made questionnaires were collected to collect the data needed to measure And measurements of the studied variables have been used. How to score the second questionnaire is designed based on the Likert 5-choice range. Experts' opinions were used to check the validity and the reliability was calculated with Cronbach's alpha and was equal to 0.79, which indicates the appropriate reliability of the instrument. Swat and system dynamics modeling were used to analyze the data. All analyzes were performed with Venism software.Results: The results showed that through modeling and simulation of factors affecting supply chain management and according to the factors, the effect of these factors on each other and how they relate is shown that two scenarios were developed that pay attention to time efficiency. Long-term can make supply chain management more efficient.
