Your digitalization ambition is there.
The baseline measurement isn't.
From scattered digital initiatives to a structured transformation roadmap
Every supply chain leader is being asked about digital transformation. Most teams have already invested in something, an ERP upgrade, a WMS, some analytics dashboards, but few have a clear picture of where they actually stand across all the dimensions that matter. Technology. Process. Leadership capability. Strategic outcomes.
A good digital maturity assessment doesn't just score your technology stack. It benchmarks your organisation against the six dimensions that research shows determine whether digital investments actually land: managerial readiness, technology adoption, process performance, strategic outcomes, and smart product capability. Without that structured baseline, investment decisions are guesswork.
This assessment is grounded in peer-reviewed Supply Chain 4.0 research and built for practitioners who need a defensible, structured answer to "where are we digitally?", not a consultant's deck, but a tool you can complete with your team today.
Where are we digitally mature?
Six dimension scores show exactly where your capability is strong and where it is lagging.
Are our systems actually enabling us?
Measures how well ERP, WMS, TMS, and automation tools support real digital workflows.
Where do we invest next?
Low-scoring dimensions reveal exactly where digitalization will generate the most value.
Do our leaders agree on our readiness?
Cross-functional completion reveals alignment gaps between logistics, procurement, IT, and planning.
Six dimensions. 63 questions. One clear picture of your digital supply chain maturity.
Answer each question on a Likert scale. The workbook scores every dimension from 0 to 100 and plots your maturity profile on a radar chart automatically.

Deliver a scored, visual readiness profile at the first client meeting. Structured credibility, immediately.
Every supply chain digitalization question leaders ask,
answered by your own assessment data
These are the exact questions supply chain leaders ask before, during, and after a digital transformation. This assessment gives you the structured data to answer all of them, with your own organisation's results.
A structured diagnostic that scores your organisation across six digital maturity dimensions, from managerial readiness to smart product integration, and outputs a visual profile of capability gaps.
Use a Likert-scale assessment covering technology adoption, process performance, leadership capability, and strategic outcomes. Score each dimension 0–100 and plot results on a radar chart.
Buying technology before measuring readiness is how organisations waste seven-figure budgets. The assessment tells you which gaps to close first so your investment actually lands.
Generic models cover IT broadly. This assessment is built specifically for supply chain operations, using Supply Chain 4.0 research to frame every question around logistics, procurement, and distribution contexts.
Yes. Independent completion by logistics, procurement, IT, and planning leaders reveals perception gaps. Where scores diverge, that is your alignment problem to solve first.
Start with your two lowest-scoring dimensions. They represent your biggest drag on digital performance. Prioritise capability building there before expanding to higher-scoring areas.

supply chain transformation firsthand
Before you buy
What does this supply chain digitalization assessment include?
A 63-question Excel workbook covering six digital maturity dimensions, with automatic 0–100 scoring and a radar chart output. No manual calculation required.
How long does it take to complete?
Most practitioners complete all 63 questions in 30 to 45 minutes. Comparing results across a leadership team takes an additional hour of discussion.
Do I need specialist knowledge to use it?
No. If you work in a supply chain function, logistics, procurement, planning, or operations, you have the knowledge needed. The questions are written for practitioners, not researchers.
What research is this assessment based on?
It draws on Frederico et al. (2019) on Supply Chain 4.0 maturity, Garay-Rondero et al. (2019) on digital supply chain models, and Klötzer & Pflaum (2017) on digitalization maturity frameworks.
Can the assessment be completed by multiple people on the same team?
Yes, and that is recommended. Independent completion by different functional leaders reveals where your team's perception of digital readiness diverges, which is often the most useful output.
What format will I receive after purchase?
Instant download of an Excel (.xlsx) workbook. A download link is also sent by email. Works on Excel 2016 or later, Windows and Mac, and Microsoft 365.
Is there a bundle option with the full digitalization course?
Yes. The assessment plus the Supply Chain Digitalization Course is available as a bundle for $79, a 27% saving. SCMDOJO Student Members get both for $39.
