Industry 4.0 is a concept that emphasizes system and process automation, digitalization, and data interchange in the workplace. Its purpose is to create a smart factory that will cut lead times and increase system productivity by responding to client demand or unforeseen circumstances. Manufacturing, supply chain (SC), and logistics could all benefit from this notion. Industry 4.0 adoption in supply chain management (SCM) is a new and important topic that requires further investigation. This study is to research the impact of Industry 4.0 on supply chains based on probable Industry 4.0 drivers and barriers. For future supply chains, Industry 4.0 is expected to introduce new difficulties and opportunities. The study addressed a number of issues and provided a method for effectively adapting and integrating the Industry 4.0 concept into supply chains. The research should help supply chain manager’s better grasp the challenges of integrating Industry 4.0 in their networks. Simulation study enables for the assessment of Industry 4.0 adoption in terms of its impact on SC performance, as well as the incorporation of both the drivers and impediments of this technological change. A conceptual framework for Industry 4.0 use in supply chains is proposed in addition to giving an empirical basis for this relationship. Then we examined the 4.0 industry in Zagros Petrochemical Company. The statistical population in this study is the official employees of Zagros Petrochemical. Then, in order to evaluate the impact of Industry 4.0 on the supply chain management of Zagros Petrochemical Company, a supply chain management methods questionnaire was used. The tool of analysis in this research is a questionnaire which was converted into mathematical output through SPSS software and was statistically analyzed. Using inferential statistics (T-Test), it was found that Industry 4.0 has a significant effect on Zagros Petrochemical Company. Then, using Friedman test, the rank of the studied features was compared. Cochran's sampling formula was used for sampling at 5% error level. In the end, based on inferential statistics, it was found that considering that in the first question of the research, the p-value obtained is more than 0.05, unlike the rest of the research questions, the null hypothesis is not rejected. Therefore, it can be inferred that Industry 4.0 is not effective in terms of strategic partnership with the supply chain management supplier of Zagros Petrochemical Company.
