The CEO of SIMBA Chain Joel Neidig specified that the company will create the Hyperledger Fabric node at Tinker air base in Oklahoma. It is remarkable that it is the logistic center of a supply chain of the U.S. Air Force. Initially main attention will be paid to risk management within a pool of purchases of the Air Force. The purpose of the company — to define all risk factors and to select potential zones of a gap in a supply chain.

SIMBA Chain also signed the partnership agreement with Boeing to unroll a new initiative and to use statistics from "real data". However Neydig did not specify what elements of a supply chain Boeing will be traced at the second stage of the SBIR project.
