Abstract
Digital integration of a supply chain is the result of changing the essence of existing relationships between enterprises from a transactional concept to a collaborative concept. The essence of it is based on mutual trust and implementation of a “win–win” strategy, which leads to the creation of a logistics partnership. Logistics partnerships between the participants of the integrated supply chain give an effective chance opposing competition and creating premises to meet the needs of customers. What is more, information sharing and coordination between buyers and vendors have been considered as useful strategies to improve supply chain performance (Huang 2003). The purpose of the article is to introduce the new collaboration paradigm called Physical Internet and its need of innovative IT solutions development that will support digital integration. Author presents the research results of European projects—MODULUSHCA and CLOUD that become a testing ground for the new tools in order to be evaluated and confronted with the real business environment and end user expectations.
