Abstract: This article presents the incidence of Industry 4.0 in the management of the supply chain and its creation value in the processes. The methodology used for this purpose proposes a systematic review to identify the literature on Industry 4.0 in supply chain management, through journals indexed in the Scopus and Science Direct databases over a time horizon of years 2010 to 2021. A qualitative analysis was carried out to identify the Industry 4.0 tools that increase performance. The results obtained initially were to identify 76 documents but based on the methodological criteria of inclusion and exclusion of the research, it was possible to establish 30 scientific articles. This article aims to contribute to the literature on Industry 4.0 and the supply chain, through its theoretical framework and the methodology used, in such a way that it provides an overview of the available knowledge and allows the development of future research.

Keywords: supply chain management; Industry 4.0; tools; computer applications; added value.
