ABSTRACT
Blockchain, AI and robotics are the top three disruptive technologies that are likely to consume a major share of the supply chain (SC) technology investments in this decade. As in the past, each technology comes with inherent elements that have the potential to unlock governance and business capabilities, but not all the technological elements/ features of each are equally facilitative to the objectives of an organization. However, due to the lack of understanding of the capabilities of a technology in a specific context, governments and organizations make major investments in technologies that then result in suboptimal return on investment (ROI). This research study identifies the most facilitative features of the blockchain technologies and demonstrate their differential effects on achieving specific outcomes. Our case-based research identifies how each BCT feature contributes to specific performance benefits. Particularly this study focuses on two different use cases to show how transparency, immutability, smart contracts and consensus enablement in blockchain-based systems can help enforce Covid-19 rules and assure food safety. Finally, this research study has concluded that matching the features of a technology, specifically blockchains to the expected project outcomes can increase adoption of the technology with better return on technology investment. © 2022 IEEE.
