Amazon Managed Blockchain is a fully managed service that makes it easy to create and manage scalable blockchain networks using the popular open source frameworks. As part of the collaboration, Tech Mahindra will offer solutions for the aviation, telecom and healthcare supply chain. This includes kit management for aviation and aerospace to effectively track and trace ‘kits’ as they are procured from multi-tier suppliers in the aviation industry, enhanced visibility for Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) on the Expected Time of Arrival (ETA) for business to consumer (B2C) supply chain in the telecom industry and tracking and identification of fraudulent medical materials (Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) Kits, face masks, gloves and sanitizers) through the medical supply chain.
“Global businesses are facing sustained headwinds and struggling to collectively navigate and strategize in this new, unchartered territory and facilitate business continuity in the current COVID world. Ensuring supply chain continuity is paramount and needs more attention in the coming times,” said Rajesh Dhuddu, Blockchain and Cybersecurity Practice Leader, Tech Mahindra.
“Organizations are advised to leverage technologies like Blockchain to address the challenges and create a competitive advantage for themselves. Our collaboration with AWS will support future pandemic preparedness and accelerate an economic rebound post COVID-19 for organizations operating global supply chains and eliminate siloes.”
The company also plans to develop other blockchain solutions across industries like banking and financial services, telecom, retail, manufacturing, oil& gas and other in the next 12-18 months.
