Abstract

Although the Internet of Things (IoT) has spawned a new breed of smart factories within supply chains, the latest pandemic has ushered in unparalleled supply chain disturbances. Following the challenges identified in the literature, we interview top experts to evaluate the significance of these challenges. We apply a multi-criteria decision analysis (MCDA) tool, analytical hierarchy process (AHP) in combination with interval-valued neutrosophic numbers (IVN). The critical part of this research is that we also perform a comparative analysis by focusing on before- and during- the pandemic periods individually to better assess the impact of the latest pandemic on the IoT challenges. Our study also includes a comprehensive, systematic literature review to bring the readers up-to-date.
