Blockchain technology is rapidly being integrated into many industries across multiple functions, in some cases revolutionizing processes and transactions.
The technology behind bitcoin, blockchain is a distributed, digital ledger which records transactions in a series of blocks. It exists in multiple copies spread over multiple computers (nodes) - secure because each new block of transactions is linked back to previous blocks - making tampering practically impossible.
The supply chain is one function that holds tremendous interest for the technology – in areas such as supplier payments, product traceability and contract bids and execution.
Blockchain has the potential to become the universal supply chain operating system – increasingly security, improving transparency and creating scalability.
