| dc.description.abstract | The South African economy faces several obstacles, including political unpredictability that may deter investment, a high unemployment rate, inflation, crime, a trade imbalance, and a volatile exchange rate. However, one of the biggest obstacles is a lack of skills. In the globalised era, having access to knowledge and skills is essential for any nation to succeed. Those without the required abilities are left behind. Logistics service providers are converting their conventional logistics system into an e-Logistics system, given how drastically the internet’s phenomenal expansion is altering how organisations conduct business. This thesis explains how the supply chain management sector has evolved significantly as a result of the advancements in information systems technology. An essential requirement for effective logistics management is the integration of Information Technology. | en_US |
