2020: Use for deliveries of the spare parts BMW
At the beginning of April, 2020 announced BMW that uses a blockchain for tracking of international supplies of spare parts.

Supply chains of carmakers are very difficult and include a number of different suppliers who need to hold communication with the producer constantly. Using PartChain, BMW traces a way of all parts from production to the plant. Having invited all suppliers to the general blockchain platform, the company will gain clearer idea of a supply chain and will be able to book audit more effectively.

We want to create the open platform which will allow to exchange data in supply chains. |  |
