Companies which are connected in the same network provide the beneficial IoT points for them from the time which customer makes his order until the time which the product arrives at his hands. All the environments of IoT are presented in this way which the benefits of them become obvious Then the wider meaning of IoT is analyzed referring current and valid examples and results based on researchers. The development in the production procedures into SCM is displayed providing the advantages of IoT as well as the benefits of IoT in global market and its contribution in SCM procedures.

Also, the benefits of companies to implement IoT and the current procedure of companies which don’t be integrated to a common network are referred via examples and relative outputs.

Furthermore, the opportunities of technology in the supply chain departments of companies as well as into warehouses and the role of transferring Data between connected devices in order to facilitate the procedures of people who work for the production of new orders from customers are described via examples as the keys of current improvement of logistics into SCM.

At the end of this paper, the impact of IoT in SCM and a relative advice to companies who are going to use or want to be integrated with IoT is suggested.
