Abstract The proliferation of 5G-enabled Internet of Things (IoT) devices presents a paradigm shift for global supply chains, introducing unprecedented levels of demand volatility and operational complexity. Traditional, siloed planning systems are ill-equipped to manage the sheer volume and velocity of data generated by these connected ecosystems. This white paper, targeted at supply chain professionals, IT architects, and business leaders, proposes a modern architectural framework for planning the supply chain of 5G IoT devices. By leveraging a synergistic combination of 5G connectivity, real-time IoT data streams, and scalable cloud computing infrastructure, this architecture positions SAP Integrated Business Planning (IBP) as the intelligent core for decision-making. We detail a solution that transforms supply chain planning from a reactive, forecast-driven process to a proactive, data-driven operation. The paper outlines the current challenges, presents a comprehensive review of the enabling capabilities, details the proposed architecture, and explores tangible use cases and benefits. The goal is to provide a strategic blueprint for building a resilient, agile, and highly responsive supply chain that can thrive in the dynamic 5G era of 2023.
