Design and Development of a Blockchain-Based Supply Chain Tracer for Secure, Transparent and Efficient Product Lifecycle Management

Abstract

Abstract This research presents a comprehensive blockchain-based solution for supply chain traceability. The system ensures secure, immutable, and transparent tracking of products from origin to delivery. Unlike conventional centralized systems, the proposed model leverages distributed ledger technology to eliminate data tampering and improve stakeholder trust. Smart contracts automate validation, reduce delays, and enhance operational efficiency. The framework demonstrates scalability and applicability across industries including manufacturing, food, and pharmaceuticals.
