Digital twins are transforming supply chains by creating real-time virtual models of warehouses, transport assets, and end-to-end logistics networks. In warehouses, they optimize space, workflows, energy use, and packaging. For transport, they predict maintenance needs, minimize downtime, and enable proactive parts sourcing. Across the supply chain, they integrate IoT, AI, cloud, and analytics to improve transparency, predict disruptions, and simulate changes without impacting operations. While widespread adoption for entire supply chains may take five-plus years, market growth is projected to exceed $50B by 2027, driven by agility and resilience needs.
