Dataset for Leveraging Blockchain to Improve Automotive Supply Chain Traceability

The data set contains support documents and file for the project: Leveraging Blockchain to Improve Automotive Supply Chain Traceability

Abstract -

The automotive industry worldwide seems to be spontaneously changing with supply chain improvement being one of the main focus areas along with cost reduction, process optimization and enhancing timely throughput. The general success parameter for achieving a better output in all the said focus areas is having an effective traceability system in place. Traceability for the automotive industry is a system documenting the genealogy of parts involved in manufacturing a specific product. Even with companies having an enormous amount of capital invested for perfecting their supply chain and achieving traceability, it is seen that they still have limited visibility and insight into their supply chain at a given instance. This study aims to leverage blockchain technology to eliminate inefficiencies of the conventional automotive supply chains for increasing transparency, streamlining processes and decentralizing network while providing stakeholders and companies with a host of value-adding features that ensure smoother and faster transaction. The study demonstrates the advantages of blockchain enabled automotive supply chain. Hyperledger Composer is used for deployment of the said network.

本数据集收录了针对项目“利用区块链技术提升汽车供应链可追溯性”的支持文档及相关文件。摘要如下：全球汽车行业似乎正自发地发生变革，其中供应链的优化是主要焦点之一，与成本降低、流程优化以及提升时效性并驾齐驱。实现所有这些领域输出优化的通用成功指标是建立有效的可追溯系统。对于汽车行业而言，可追溯性是指记录制造特定产品所涉及零部件的渊源的系统。尽管企业投入巨额资本以完善其供应链并实现可追溯性，但在特定时刻，他们对其供应链的可见性和洞察力依然有限。本研究旨在利用区块链技术消除传统汽车供应链的无效性，以增加透明度、简化流程并实现网络去中心化，同时为利益相关者和公司提供一系列增值功能，确保交易更加顺畅和高效。研究展示了区块链赋能的汽车供应链的优势。本研究采用Hyperledger Composer进行网络部署。
