Many organizations are confronted with the challenge of improving supply chain transparency not only to meet regulatory requirements, but also to optimize operations, guarantee the quality of outputs, and ensure the sustainability of processes. As this topic has garnered significant interest across a wide range of academic disciplines, there is a need to synthesize and categorize these diverse contributions to inspire future investigations of emerging or under-researched substantive areas. This article addresses this need by reviewing existing research on supply chain transparency and offers an integrated understanding of this growing literature. By analyzing a sample of over 300 peer-reviewed articles through bibliometric and automated text mining methods, we identify six distinct clusters that represent substantive literature subdomains: transparency technologies, knowledge integration, governance, sustainability, traceability, and resilience. Building on these structured analyses, we develop a literature framework to comprehensively organize insights from these clusters and illustrate the conceptual relationships between transparency management systems, transparency vehicles, and transparency outcomes. By providing a holistic examination of how supply chain transparency is enabled, our framework aids researchers' future studies and guides practitioners’ strategies to identify, diagnose, and address modern challenges that face supply chains (e.g., COVID-19 pandemic, workplace exploitation, increased third-party scrutiny).

许多组织都面临着提高供应链透明度的挑战，不仅要满足监管要求，还要优化运营、保证输出质量并确保流程的可持续性。由于该主题引起了广泛学科的极大兴趣，因此有必要对这些不同的贡献进行综合和分类，以激发未来对新兴或研究不足的实质性领域的调查。本文通过回顾有关供应链透明度的现有研究来满足这一需求，并提供对这种不断增长的文献的综合理解。通过文献计量和自动文本挖掘方法分析 300 多篇同行评审文章的样本，我们确定了代表实质性文献子域的六个不同集群：透明度技术、知识整合、治理、可持续性、可追溯性和弹性。在这些结构化分析的基础上，我们开发了一个文献框架来全面组织来自这些集群的见解，并说明透明度管理系统、透明度工具和透明度结果之间的概念关系。通过对如何实现供应链透明度进行全面检查，我们的框架有助于研究人员的未来研究，并指导从业者识别、诊断和应对供应链面临的现代挑战的策略（例如，COVID-19 大流行、工作场所剥削、增加第三方审查）。我们开发了一个文献框架来全面组织来自这些集群的见解，并说明透明度管理系统、透明度工具和透明度结果之间的概念关系。通过对如何实现供应链透明度进行全面检查，我们的框架有助于研究人员的未来研究，并指导从业者识别、诊断和应对供应链面临的现代挑战的策略（例如，COVID-19 大流行、工作场所剥削、增加第三方审查）。我们开发了一个文献框架来全面组织来自这些集群的见解，并说明透明度管理系统、透明度工具和透明度结果之间的概念关系。通过对如何实现供应链透明度进行全面检查，我们的框架有助于研究人员的未来研究，并指导从业者识别、诊断和应对供应链面临的现代挑战的策略（例如，COVID-19 大流行、工作场所剥削、增加第三方审查）。
