Supply chain performance is determined using several kinds of performance perspectives but this research paper utilized three performance perspectives namely operational performance perspectives, environmental perspectives, and economic perspectives. Supply chain performance indicators offer an estimate of the productivity of the supply chain system. Understanding the supply chain more effectively and increasing its overall performance can be improved by measuring its performance. The main purpose of this research is to investigate the various supply chain performance measures for Industry 4.0. This research study adopted secondary data that includes published academic research papers, peer review journals, press releases, and websites about supply chain performance measures and the many elements that influence the adoption of Industry 4.0 in general. According to a review of the literature, measures, and metrics of supply chain performance measurement have been analyzed and a structure with an innovative perspective on how supply chain procedures could be measured is offered. This research provides a cross-organizational performance measuring approach from a system perspective to help performance improvement in supply chain management. This study revealed that organizations that carry out collaborative activities with vendors and consumers are able to develop organizational capacity, which ought to spill over into boosted operational performance such as price and quality.
