This kind of supply chain project only works if everyone in that chain adopts their procedures. How are they getting everyone in the chain to cooperate and how do they deal with it if some refuse (eg. because of the costs associated with training personnel and getting new equipment) or fail to use it?
That's a nice question...so you think that at the end of the day there will be only a couple blockchain-supply chain related products around? Because, speaking of softwares, if you look at ERPs for example, you either use SAP or Oracle, no others
My question came from the perspective that it is hard for everyone in the supply chain to change their current ways of doing things. Especially if it means going from low tech to complicated high tech stuff. If some people in the supply chain keep using pens, paper and faxes, it might be quite hard to make the LaneAxis blockchain work.
Then again, high tech does not have to be harder to use. Photography used to require intricate knowledge of light, film, chemicals, lenses - and a lot of patience. Nowadays everyone has a photo camera in their pocket which is no more complicated than pointing and a tap on the screen.
