Abstract

Implementing supply management strategies has become crucial in the industry due to rapidly evolving customer expectations and rising competition. Meeting customer demands and boosting satisfaction are essential for operational efficiency and sustainability. However, the lack of data on processes after products are delivered to stores makes it difficult to conduct a comprehensive analysis of the last mile of the supply chain. In this context, Internet of Things (IoT) technologies provide significant advantages to retail businesses by enhancing traceability, transparency, and process efficiency. This study proposes a model that integrates IoT technologies into the end-customer connection stage of the supply chain and introduces a real-time analysis model for customer behavior. The potential benefits, application strategies, and key challenges of the proposed model are discussed comprehensively.

Özet

Tedarik yönetimi stratejilerinin uygulanması, sektörde hızla değişen müşteri beklentileri ve artan rekabet nedeniyle zorunlu hale gelmiştir. Müşteri taleplerinin karşılanabilmesi ve memnuniyet düzeylerinin artırılabilmesi hem operasyonel verimlilik hem de sürdürülebilirlik açısından kritik bir gereksinimdir. Buna karşın, ürünlerin mağazalara tesliminden sonra gerçekleşen süreçlere ilişkin veri yetersizliği, tedarik zincirinin son aşamasının analiz edilmesini güçleştirmektedir. Bu bağlamda, Nesnelerin İnterneti teknolojileri süreçlerin izlenebilirliğini, şeffaflığını ve verimliliğini artırarak perakende işletmelerine önemli avantajlar sunmaktadır. Bu çalışmada, nesnelerin interneti teknolojilerinin tedarik zincirinin nihai müşteriyle buluşma aşamasına entegrasyonunu esas alan bir model önerisi geliştirilmekte ve müşteri davranışlarını anlık olarak elde ederek analiz edecek bir model önerisi sunulmaktadır. Önerilen modelin potansiyel faydaları, uygulanabilirlik stratejileri ve karşılaşılabilecek temel zorluklar ayrıntılı olarak ele alınmaktadır.
