ABSTRACT
Business processes transformation and enabling new business models with digital technologies are the main processes of modern business enviroment. These phenomena are associated with such terms as «digital economy», «digitalization», «digital platforms», «digital ecosystem», «digital services», «digital transformation» etc.
Process, industrial and technological approaches to digital transformation, conceptual elements of «Supply Chain Management 4.0», «Digital supply chain compass», and the main conclusions of «Digital transformation in Russia – 2020» research are considered based on the analysis of treatises and investigations of such consulting companies as McKinsey & Company, Gartner, PwC, KMDA.
Intergovernmental strategic decisions in digital transformation are fundamental for digital platforms development, creation of new models of interaction between global supply chains participants in the VUCA world and regulation methods. This paper describes digital services as part of Eurasian Economic Union digital transport corridors ecosystem development, as well as key regulations and projects on digital transformation in logistics industry support.

ABSTRACT
Nowadays, it is necessary to capture accumulate, analyze and manage a huge amount of data while managing logistics processes. However, the world’s amount of data is generated with an exponentially growing pace and current IT tools are becoming inadequate. To solve potential problems, the Big Data concept was created. The idea is to accumulate, store, analyze and manage the amount of data that significantly exceed the functionality of traditional systems. The article touches upon the definition of Big Data and Big Data Analytics, which include modern techniques for processing big data sets to search for hidden pattern which allow making better decisions and improve business efficiency. In addition, the article examines the main approaches to the systematization of types of analytics and analytical techniques used to process data and generate conclusions for decision-makers. The author considers the influence of different cases on processes in supply chains. However, despite the benefits already achieved in the implementation of Big data processing technologies, further development of the implementation methodology is required.

ABSTRACT
Modern world governmental institutions and business environment strive for comprehensive and complex development. Thus, it is becoming more evident that activities of our society require implementing new technologies such as digital economy. Logistics, being a complex and multistage process hugely intervening into modern market relationships, requires constant evolution so that it could bring more efficiency into business and economic processes. IT technologies and Internet have a chance to become one of the sources of such transformations. In particular, implementation of the blockchain technology into logistics may give an impulse to achieve goals set by the government. The article covers such topics, as historical development of logistics, general steps of logistics development, application of blockchain technology, issues associated with implementation of blockchain technology into logistics processes. The main goal of this research is to analyze opportunities for implementation of blockchain technology into logistics in Russia and prospects of further economic and business processes digitalization. Moreover, in the framework of digital economy blockchain technology in logistics can enable the world to reach transparency and security.

ABSTRACT
In recent years, the number of articles and studies about digital supply chain management (Digital SCM) has increased. It is associated with the development of digital technologies that transforms business processes in supply chains, and new area of economic activity – the digital economy. The aim of this work is to provide a comprehensive study and description of the main trends, characteristics, practices, benefits and future possibilities in the development of Digital supply chain management. The method of the paper is the theoretical analysis of the works on logistics and supply chain management as well as analytical articles and reviews on the digital technologies use in SCM and their impact on logistics processes and the effectiveness of the supply chain management. To illustrate the effectiveness and future possibilities of applying Digital supply chain management, the study will also present practical examples of implementation and use of various digital technologies: Big Data, IoT (Internet of Things), Cloud services, etc. The digital supply chain management meets modern trends of business development and information technology, which will allow companies to gain new competitive advantages (cost, service and order fulfillment time). The application of these solutions increases the level of cooperation and transparency (visibility) in the supply chain. It creates a base on which modern logistics technologies and strategies such as CPFR, SandOP, EDI, ECR, JIT, QR or VMI can be implemented and additional benefits for the effective management and development of supply chains can be created.
