Supply chain & logistics
A shared ledger is a genuinely good fit here, and that makes the sector unusually easy to oversell. Several parties who do not trust each other must agree on a sequence of events — but only where those parties will actually put data in, and the data-entry commitment is the part that decides the outcome.
Where we are usually engaged
Multi-party event records
Custody transfer, condition and chain of handling, agreed between parties with no shared system today.
Documentary flows
Where a document is the instrument, and its authenticity is the constraint.
Exception handling
The workflow around a discrepancy, which is where the operational cost of these programmes actually lives.
The question we ask first
Which counterparties have committed to entering data, and what happens to the record when one of them does not?
A ledger with one participant is a database with extra steps. We test that commitment before we design.
