The Supply chain industry has been and still is being hampered by trust, efficiency, and transparency. A Blockchain system will support transparency, enhance trust, efficiency, and speed, by utilizing a decentralized ledger that is immutable for recording all transactions among multiple parties allowing verifiability in a tamper-proof way.
Create a ledger system that creates an eco-system where information flows openly in a permissioned manner, reduces the assumed risk in the supply chain, and reduces the total cost of the supply chain while making the supply chain more agile and adaptive.
- Retailer
- Place an Order to a Producer
- Receives Order from a Shipper
- Producer
- Fulfills an Order
- Assigns to a Shipper
- Shipper
- Creates shipment and transport Order assigned by Producer.
- Customer
- Queries an Order to get the Order Transaction History, tracing it back to origination.
- Regulator
- Moderates all Orders in the system to ensure that proper quality and guidelines are being followed and Audit purposes.
This defines data that is required for the chain code, information about each product (e.g., Product Id, Price, etc.) and transactions by all parties will be stored on the Hyperledger database CouchDB.
An audit may need to be done and access may be needed in the case of a government investigation (E.g., Money laundering, illegal smuggling)
This sample demonstrates an end-to-end blockchain application that connects to Hyperledger Fabric 2.2. It implements attribute-based access control, user management, and a React front-end UI to interact and query the blockchain ledger. The sample takes the user through ordering, shipping, and enlisting the product for the customer. The customer can trace the order history through the supply chain, providing end-to-end visibility. For example, you can see the retailer receiving a shipment, and then a customer logging into the application to see a trace of when the shipment was ordered, shipped, and received. Lastly, a regulator has access to all orders in the system to ensure correct practices are followed.
This project is designing a Supply Chain dApp (Decentralized Application) using the Hyperledger Fabric Blockchain framework, other technologies used are Nodejs which acts as a middleware technology in connecting frontend and backend (blockchain) to communicate together, React is used for developing the Web Application. The reason for Blockchain is to create a trustless, efficient, and transparent system that allows faster movement of products and transaction processing.
