Everis is a multinational consulting firm that works with clients to transform their vision and business through blockchain technology. Blockchain allows for disintermediation and trustless transactions without centralized intermediaries. It provides benefits like improved security, immutability, and programmable smart contracts. For supply chain management, blockchain enables real-time visibility, reduces errors and fraud, and allows for automated processes through smart contracts. One example is using a private blockchain like Hyperledger to securely track shipments between a factory, driver and retail destination with timestamps and verifications at each step.

5. General Introduction
to Blockchain

6. The Blockchain is a new way to
implement trusted transactions
without trusted intermediaries
Exchanging assets without
central intermediaries
Blockchain is a distributed
database (or ledger) that
maintains a continuously-growing
list of records called blocks.
Each block contains a timestamp
and a link to a previous block.
The data in a block cannot be
altered retrospectively.

7. During the last year, an increasing number of
Transport and Logistics companies have also
started to become aware of the many disruptive
benefits that Blockchain technology can offer …

8. 01 DISINTERMEDIATION AND TRUSTLESS
eliminating the need for a trusted third party to guarantee
the security of a transaction, eliminating all counterparty
risk.
02
03
04
USER EMPOWERMENT, with end users always
in full control over their sensitive information and
transactions.
HIGH QUALITY DATA, with Blockchain data being
always complete, available, consistent, timely and
accurate.
DURABILITY, REALIBITY AND LONGETIVITY,
without central control points or data vulnerability.

9. 05 PROCESS INTEGRITY, with transactions being
executed exactly as the protocol demands even without
oversight from a trusted third party.
06
07
08
TRANSPARENCY AND INMUTABILITY, with
transactions protected from alteration or deletion, and
changes to public Blockchains always publicly viewable.
SIMPLICITY, with all transactions being added to a
single public ledger, reducing the clutter and
complications of multiple ledger.
SPEED, with Blockchain business transactions being
processed in minutes rather the traditional days or weeks
09 LOWER TRANSACTION COSTS, by eliminating third
parties, data errors, waiting times and overhead costs.

10. Key Features
TRUST
DISTRIBUTED
IMPROVED SECURITY
IMMUTABILITY
PROGRAMMABLE:
SMART CONTRACTS
NO DOUBLE SPENDING
FASTER SETTLEMENT

11. A Smart Contract is a computer program that
directly controls the transfer of assets between
parties under certain conditions

13. Is Blockchain the silver bullet
needed by the IoT industry?

14. 01 Blockchain technology is the missing link to settle
privacy and reliability concerns in the Internet of
Things.
02
It can be used in tracking billions of connected
devices, enabling the processing of transactions and
coordination between devices; this allows for
significant savings for IoT industry manufacturers.
03 This decentralized approach would eliminate single
points of failure, creating a more resilient
ecosystem for devices to run on.
04 The cryptographic algorithms used by blockchain
would make consumer data more private.

15. 05
The ledger is tamper-proof and cannot be
manipulated by malicious actors because it doesn't
exist in any single location, and man-in-the-
middle attacks cannot be staged because there is
no single thread of communication that can be
intercepted.
06 In an IoT network, the blockchain can keep an
immutable record of the history of smart devices.
07 This feature enables the autonomous functioning of
smart devices without the need for centralized
authority.
08 As a result, the blockchain opens the door to a
series of IoT scenarios that were remarkably
difficult, or even impossible to implement without
it.

16. Benefits of Blockchain
Technology

17. Blockchain technology can eliminate or automate some of the business processes, making
them faster, cheaper, more transparent, less risky, more efficient and, in some cases even
unnecessary, thanks to the automation it provide.

18. Impacts of Blockchain
Technology on the Supply Chain
Pre-transaction information available for transactions parties
Fast and automated processes between the main players
Real-time visibility across the whole supply chain. All parties -banks, buyers, sellers and
any other trusted intermediaries – are able to see when the goods have shipped and can
release funding appropriately. This should reduce time to confirm assets, confirm
transaction, release payment and received confirmations
Transparency and consensus will help mitigate the risk of documentary fraud and reduce
the cost of transaction reconciliation between banks
Immutability of historic data provide a secure transfer of value and a solution to the trade
finance problem of endorsement
Smart contracts offer the possibility of self-executing contracts triggered by the efficient
exchange of digital data, potentially revolutionizing the Letter of Credit

19. Impacts of Blockchain
Technology on the Supply Chain
Better Tracking of Orders and Assets (Greater Trust by consumers) - Since blockchains can
be effectively tracked through all processes, companies using blockchain technology will be able to
more readily produce detailed information about a product’s lifecycle, including supplier information,
manufacturing details and logistics information.
Reduction in Errors in Payment Processing and Auditing
Identification of Attempted Fraud More Easily –For example, an employee that goes into the
system to change past events will alter the coding of the event. However, the altered coding
appears so differently that it would be practically impossible to not notice the change This will allow
companies to recognize the fraud and who initiated the change almost immediately, further driving
down costs from poor employee practices or even potential fraud attempts by customers.

In this case we consider a private blockchain, because of confidentiality of information.
This solution increase security, traceability, immutability of data, non repudation, and
creates a single Ledger.
