Supply Chain Digitalization Assessment: Measure Your Digital Readiness

Digital transformation is accelerating across every industry, and Supply Chain Management is no exception. Organizations aiming to modernize their Distribution Operations or improve efficiency must first understand their digital readiness. This Supply Chain Digitalization Assessment provides a structured, research-based way to evaluate your current maturity level and identify areas where digital capabilities can drive improvement.

Companies are shifting from traditional operating models toward digitally enabled supply chains to reduce inefficiencies, enhance customer experience, and remain competitive. Without taking steps toward modernization now, organizations risk falling behind in an increasingly data-driven landscape.

Why Assess Digital Readiness in Supply Chain Operations?

Before investing in advanced technologies—such as automation, predictive analytics, AI solutions, or IoT systems—businesses need a clear view of their existing digital supply chain maturity. This assessment helps establish that baseline.

The Supply Chain Digitalization Assessment tool includes 63 structured questions designed to measure readiness across six key dimensions. The insights revealed help leaders plan their transformation journey with accuracy, alignment, and confidence.

Six Dimensions of Digital Supply Chain Evaluation

The assessment examines six categories that influence supply chain modernization, digital capability, and organizational readiness.

Managerial & Capability Enablers

Evaluates leadership commitment, employee competencies, and cultural readiness for digital initiatives.

Technology Applications Across the Supply Chain

Measures how existing systems—ERP, WMS, TMS, automation tools—support digital workflows and data visibility.

Process Performance Requirements

Identifies areas where digital technologies can improve operational speed, accuracy, and reliability.

Strategic Business Outcomes

Analyzes how digital improvements impact cost, service levels, agility, and strategic competitiveness.

Smart Product Realization

Assesses the organization’s progress in shifting from traditional products to digitally enhanced product-service offerings.

Smart Product Application

Evaluates the integration of intelligent or connected products into operational processes.

These categories work together to show the organization’s broader supply chain digitalization landscape.

How the Assessment Works

Each question is answered using a simple Likert scale from “strongly agree” to “strongly disagree.”
Your responses generate a radar chart with scores ranging from 0 to 100 for each maturity dimension.

This visual overview helps you:

• Identify the weakest digital capabilities

• Prioritize improvement initiatives

• Develop a supply chain transformation roadmap

• Align leadership around modernization needs

Low-scoring categories indicate where the organization will gain the most value from digitalization efforts. Synonyms such as digital readiness, supply chain transformation, and digital capability development are also used throughout the assessment to give a complete picture of your digital journey.

Collaborative Use for Supply Chain Leaders

This tool is designed for managers across supply chain–related functions. Ideally, multiple leaders—such as logistics, procurement, planning, warehousing, and IT—should complete it independently.

Comparing results helps reveal alignment gaps, differing perceptions of digital maturity, and shared priorities for transformation.
