Description:

In this paper, we will specify our research on the impact of the COVID19 on Supply Chain Management and show up the critical issues and how the digital solution like the Physical Internet (PI, π) could solve the disruptions of production or delivery of a Supply Chain. The Physical Internet is still an emerging phenomenon in which it is intended to replace the current logistics model by encompassing new technologies such as Artificial Intelligence, Big Data, the Internet of Things (IoT), and others. This article aims to compose conceptual research to describe Supply Chain Management problems during the COVID-19 pandemic and represent the Physical Internet as a solution for this disruption based on various journal articles, papers, websites, and managers' experiences. Further, this study helps increase the understanding of scholars and practitioners on how the novel PI paradigm can solve COVID-19-induced Supply Chain disruptions. Furthermore, the Physical Internet and other modern technologies in the business world are necessary and recommended, as these current issues now require quick decisions and up-to-date knowledge.
