Literature review: Current trends and future prospects of digital vaccine supply chain support technology.

The digital vaccine supply chain (DVSC) harnesses modern information technology to track, monitor, and manage the entire vaccine process in real-time, ensuring vaccine quality and safety while enhancing the transparency and efficiency of the supply chain (SC). This paper undertakes a systematic literature review of research papers on DVSC support technology, adopting the Bibliometric-Systematic Literature Review (B-SLR) method. It addresses the gaps in previous research in this area and offers new ideas and perspectives for further applications. The results suggest that the DVSC can gain advantages from the perspective of supporting technology and identify research opportunities for the digital-technology community. Further research in this field holds promise, and we propose intriguing research directions. This study clearly presents the research theoretical framework of DVSC support technology. We expect that, to some extent, it can predict the future development direction of DVSCs.
