Abstract
Emerging Technologies like Artificial Intelligence (AI), Machine Learning (ML), Autonomous Systems and Robotics are revolutionizing the future of Supply chain Management. This paper discusses the revolutionary impact of these Emerging technologies on the supply chain as a field through critical evaluation of dominant industry practices. We examine how these technologies enhance operation efficacies, minimize costs, and improve flexibility to market changes or disruptions. The ML algorithms are used to improve predictions and support data-driven decision-making. This not only saves money but also reduces the work of Supply chain professionals. The study highlights that organizations integrating any form of emerging technologies are more resilient overall and experience improved operational efficiency. The findings support a proposition that a positive effect on forecasting, inventory management, productivity, and customer satisfaction is expected out of Emerging technologies, which are crucial for maintaining a good position in the global marketplace.
