Project Abstract

Abstract
Blockchain technology has emerged as a transformative innovation with the potential to revolutionize various industries, including supply chain management. This research project explores the implementation of blockchain technology in supply chain management to enhance transparency and efficiency in purchasing processes. The aim of this study is to investigate how blockchain technology can address the challenges faced by traditional supply chain systems, such as lack of transparency, inefficiencies, and susceptibility to fraud. The research methodology involves a comprehensive literature review to understand the current state of supply chain management, the principles of blockchain technology, and previous studies on blockchain adoption in supply chains. The literature review identified key benefits of implementing blockchain technology in supply chain management, including enhanced transparency, improved traceability, increased efficiency, reduced costs, and enhanced security. The review also highlighted challenges and limitations associated with blockchain adoption, such as scalability issues, regulatory concerns, and interoperability challenges. To address these issues, the research proposes a framework for implementing blockchain technology in supply chain management, incorporating best practices and strategies to maximize the benefits of the technology while mitigating potential risks. The research methodology includes a mixed-method approach, combining qualitative and quantitative data collection methods. Qualitative data will be gathered through interviews with supply chain experts, blockchain technology specialists, and industry professionals to gain insights into current practices, challenges, and opportunities related to blockchain adoption in supply chains. Quantitative data will be collected through surveys and case studies to analyze the impact of blockchain technology on transparency, efficiency, and overall supply chain performance. The findings of this study will contribute to the existing body of knowledge on blockchain technology in supply chain management and provide practical insights for organizations looking to adopt blockchain solutions. The research aims to demonstrate the benefits of implementing blockchain technology in enhancing transparency and efficiency in purchasing processes, ultimately improving supply chain operations and driving competitive advantage. The conclusion will summarize the key findings, implications for practice, and recommendations for future research in the field of blockchain technology and supply chain management.
