In recent years, the construction sector has undergone a significant transformation driven by digitalization. In
this context, the use of Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) as a means of optimizing supply
chain management (SCM) has gained particular relevance. These technologies have not only proven useful
in improving traceability and efficiency in construction processes, but have also contributed to strengthening
communication between the various stakeholders involved throughout the project lifecycle. Several recent stu-
dies have highlighted the benefits of digital tools such as BIM (Building Information Modeling), the Internet of
Things (IoT), blockchain, and platforms. Collaborative technologies, which enable more integrated and trans-
parent project management (Wu et al., 2022; Celik et al., 2023). This systematic review, based on the analysis
of 30 scientific articles indexed between 2019 and 2024, shows that the application of these technologies favors
interorganizational coordination, reduces the likelihood of errors, and increases the system’s capacity to adapt
to changes and unforeseen events (Hargaden et al., 2021; Fernandez-Carames et al., 2024). However, several
challenges are also identified that hinder their implementation. These include a lack of common standards,
resistance to change on the part of teams, high initial costs, and limited training in digital skills. Despite these
barriers, researchers agree that establishing appropriate regulatory frameworks and strengthening digital gover-
nance can facilitate a more widespread adoption of ICTs in construction projects. This would allow to fully
exploit its potential in the improvement and integration of the supply chain (Qian & Papadonikolaki, 2020;
Sharma et al., 2023).

Introducci´on
Dentro de los 10 ´ultimos a˜nos, el sector de la construcci´on ha iniciado a implementar de forma progresiva varias
Tecnolog´ıas de la Informaci´on y la Comunicaci´on (TIC), con el objetivo de afrontar los problemas frecuentes
como la divisi´on de procesos, la disminuci´on de la productividad y la deficiente visibilidad a lo largo de la
cadena de suministro [1]. La necesidad de una gesti´on m´as integrada de dicha cadena (SCM) donde adquiere
relevancia en un contexto caracterizado por la intervenci´on de varias partes interesadas, disciplinas y flujos de
informaci´on que demandan una sincronizaci´on continua y eficaz [2].
Entre las soluciones digitales m´as implementadas resaltan, el blockchain, el Modelado de Informaci´on para
la Construcci´on (BIM), el Internet de las Cosas (IoT), los sistemas de planificaci´on de recursos empresariales
(ERP) y distintos sistemas de trabajo colaborativas. Estas tecnolog´ıas han mostrado un notable potencial para
mejorar la comunicaci´on, reducir los errores operativos y industrializar actividades rutinarias [3]. La evoluci´on
digital no solo incorpora la productividad t´ecnica, sino que tambi´en refuerza aspectos como la transparencia,
la sostenibilidad y el control de calidad en los proyectos de construcci´on [4,5].
A pesar de ello, todav´ıa hay par´ametros significativos que obstaculizan una adopci´on integral. Destacan,
entre las mas concurrentes son los problemas de interoperabilidad entre plataformas, la ausencia de normas
estandarizadas, la resistencia al cambio en las organizaciones y la escasa inversi´on en capacitaci´on digital [6].
Dentro de este enfoque, el actual art´ıculo toma como objetivo analizar el impacto real que tienen las TIC en
