Abstract
Made in Italy companies, and in particular those operating in the food sector, play a fundamental role in the Italian economy and represent its most dynamic component. Technolo- gies, and in particular smart technologies, are becoming a key factor so as to be progressively adopted in manufacturing companies, in particular in the manufacturers of machines, plants, pro- duction equipment, food processing and preservation. Therefore, the implementation and use of innovative accounting information systems also seem essential to transform the strategic plan- ning process by providing new relationships with employees, customers and suppliers, new ways of data analysis to support strategic actions [1], changing competitive dynamics and suggesting new sources of innovation [2]. The rise of the fourth industrial revolution [3] is opening new growth opportunities for territories and businesses, which can achieve superior performance through these technological processes. The aim of this research is to identify, through a system- atic literature review, what is the state of the art on information systems and technologies of the digital world and how they affect organizations belonging to the food sector.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
