Blockchain

Blockchain-based supplier information management
Creates a source of supplier information and digital identity using the cryptographic security of blockchain.
Suppliers offer buyers immediate access to their data (regulatory, compliance, legal, etc.)
Simplify and accelerate supplier qualification, onboarding & lifecycle management.
The Power of Blockchain
Decentralization
Records are copied and continually checked by algorithms to prevent data from being altered or hacked
Immutability
Any changes to records are saved as a new version and linked to prior versions for audibility
Transparency
Data privacy is ensured through complex cryptography & nothing gets stored as readable text
Conventional systems are open to fraud, error and inefficiency
Each participant has his own, seperate database, or ledger — increasing the possibility of human error or fraud
Often laden with manual processes, resulting in frequent delays and inefficiencies
Shared databases cannot prevent malicious activity. Hacked entities can corrupt or destroy data in the shared database, making it invalid for everyone involved
Reliance on intermediaries for validation creates inefficiencies
Blockchain is designed for trust and secure trading
Single, shared, tamper-evident ledger — once recorded, transactions cannot be altered
Data is guaranteed to be valid and reconciled against the data held by the others participating on the Blockchain
Provides levels of error checking and transaction validity not obtainable in regular shared databases
Immutably records all details of a transaction end-to-end, reducing vulnerabilities
