Abstract

Supply chain management is essential to regulated industries, e.g., food and drug manufacturing. Due to the complexity of the logistic and manufacturing procedures in reality, regulation enforcement and anti-counterfeiting is hard to achieve. To solve this issue, we present a blockchain-based supply chain system which the design is based on the logistic behavioral patterns in the literature, as well as the real-world settings of the industries. Our system had deployed to existing drugs manufacturers and wholesalers in Chain, however, it is possible to apply on any industry. Our design also incorporates digital identity management and quality monitoring, which are the essential services of supply chain management systems. We also analyze the efficiency of our implementation on a typical cloud platform. Our system is efficient and practical for real deployment based on our experimental results.
