Digital transformation (DT) and automation technologies have significantly impacted logistics supply chain management (LSCM), enhancing business performance. Efforts to automate processes alongside machine robotic aim improve reliability, consistency, efficiency, cost-effectiveness. While existing research has explored specific aspects of DT process (RPA), the deployment implementation RPA as a service (RPAaaS) in LSCM are under-explored. This study focuses on aims organisational associated with DT. A systematic review identifies five knowledge clusters regarding for LSCM. Real-life cases third-party company highlight challenges opportunities related deployment. Insights timing choice RPAaaS platform facilitate enterprises discussed. paper provides extensive theoretical insights into offers practical guidance streamlined implementation.
