Abstract
The increasing competition, in which companies are currently involved, requires the search for agreement among different trading partners to achieve synergies that will allow them to build competitive advantage and survive in a globalized environment. Additionally, the use of information and communication technologies (ICT) in this environment is essential to integrate and communicate to members of the supply chain (SC) or networks that want to collaborate, therefore it is necessary that the information systems and information technologies (IS/IT) be adjust and be support to global business strategy of the SC and/or networks. In this sense, this article seeks to analyze, relate and synthesize the research that has addressed the disciplines of collaboration and strategic alignment, both individually and jointly, in order to identify possible future lines of research from conceptualization performed.
