Abstract:
The business world today is faced with new and rapid changes in basic customer demands and needs as a result of global competition. State institutions and private hospitals have also started reviewing their costs and supply rates and are looking for solutions to market demands and costs in order to remain competitive. One of the most important ways to efficiently use and track the devices owned by hospitals, the utilization of Industry 4.0 technologies, including the Internet of Things, Artificial Intelligence, and cyber-physical systems. The desire for a more flexible supply process that adapts to market conditions and aligns with customer and patients’ needs has sparked interest in these technologies. This research aims to investigate the advantages of smart logistics applications using industry 4.0 technologies for businesses and hospitals, reveals the differences between traditional methods, and contributes to the literature through a literature review. The comprehensive literature review concluded that smart logistics technologies positively affect the productivity of hospital staff and the quality of service provided. Most of the literature on smart logistics focuses on theoretical and conceptual studies, which support the idea that smart logistics is a very new field.
Keywords – Industry 4.0, smart logistic, Artificial Intelligence, smart production, smart healthcare logistic. |
