This paper is based on the ”Guidelines for conducting and reporting case study research in software engineering” and it demonstrates the design of the self-organizing adaptive supply chain through an integration of processes and systems. As a result, the automated near real-time data flow enables shorter order-lead-time with a high accuracy of information. Although the study includes the architecture for the self-organizing adaptive supply chain, it cannot be completely standardized due to individual processes and IT-systems within different companies. Academics and practitioners may find it useful to identify appropriate scenarios while looking for the ways to digitize their supply chains.en2365-50702017255273epublihttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/self-organizing systemsadaptive supply chaindigitalizationuse caseWirtschaftConference Paperurn:nbn:de:gbv:830-8821768010.15480/882.147111420/1474https://www.epubli.de/shop/buch/200000006914410.15480/882.1471Other
