IoT Device meets Blockchain
The Challenge
In recent years, there has been a significant increase in the demand for transporting highly temperature-sensitive vaccines in passively cooled thermoboxes. To ensure the quality of these vaccines for customers, a seamless monitoring and comprehensive documentation of the transport chain is essential. However, a closer look at the transport processes in the pharmaceutical industry reveals that these requirements are currently not adequately met. For instance, it is difficult to detect unacceptable temperature deviations within the supply chains, which increases the risk of a loss in vaccine quality. This can have various consequences for companies, including increased costs due to complaints and potential damage to reputation caused by low-quality products, ultimately jeopardizing the company's competitiveness.
