Thesis Abstract

Abstract
The implementation of blockchain technology in supply chain management has garnered significant attention in recent years due to its potential to enhance traceability and transparency throughout the supply chain. This thesis explores the impact of integrating blockchain technology into supply chain management processes to improve traceability and transparency. The study begins with a comprehensive review of the current literature on blockchain technology, supply chain management, traceability, and transparency to provide a solid foundation for the research. The research methodology chapter outlines the approach taken to investigate the implementation of blockchain technology in supply chain management, including data collection methods and analysis techniques. Through a detailed analysis of the findings, this thesis examines the benefits and challenges associated with implementing blockchain technology in supply chain management. The discussion of findings chapter delves into the key insights gained from the research, highlighting the ways in which blockchain technology can enhance traceability and transparency in the supply chain. The study also identifies the limitations of implementing blockchain technology in supply chain management and provides recommendations for overcoming these challenges. In conclusion, this thesis summarizes the key findings and contributions to the field of supply chain management. The research demonstrates that the implementation of blockchain technology has the potential to revolutionize supply chain processes by providing a secure and transparent platform for tracking products throughout the supply chain. By enhancing traceability and transparency, blockchain technology can improve efficiency, reduce costs, and strengthen trust among supply chain partners. This thesis contributes to the growing body of literature on blockchain technology in supply chain management and provides valuable insights for practitioners and researchers seeking to leverage this innovative technology for improved traceability and transparency.
