Abstract

İnsanlar ve işletmeler için göz ardı edilmesi imkânsız olan ve kullanıldığı sektörlerde büyük değişimleri beraberinde getiren blok zincir teknolojisi, işletmelerde birçok sorunun çözümüne katkı sağlamaktadır. Ancak blokzincir teknolojisi, tedarik zinciri ve lojistik alanında beklenen ölçüde uygulanmamış ve bu konuda literatürde diğer alanlara göre sınırlı sayıda çalışmaya yer verilmiştir. Bu bağlamda çalışmanın amacı, blokzincir teknolojisini açıklamak, teknolojinin iyi tanınmasını sağlamak, faydalarını tedarik zinciri ve lojistik faaliyetlerinde kullanım örnekleri ile açıklayarak işletmeler üzerinde farkındalık yaratmak ve literatür analizi yaparak literatürdeki boşlukları tespit ederek sonraki araştırmacılara katkı sağlamaktır. Yapılan keşifsel araştırma sonucunda blockchain teknolojisinin güvenilirlik, maliyet, esneklik, gecikmeler, şeffaflık ve düşük performans başta olmak üzere birçok sorunun çözümüne katkı sağladığı tespit edilmiştir. Yapılan literatür analizi sonucunda, tedarik zinciri ve lojistik alanında blockchain teknolojisine yönelik akademik çalışmaların yeterli olmadığı, teknolojinin ilgili alanda daha fazla işletme tarafından öğrenilebilmesi ve kullanılabilmesi için bu çalışmaların sayısının artırılması gerektiği sonucuna ulaşılmıştır.

A Comprehensive Analysis of Blockchain Applications in Supply Chain Management and Logistics Activities

Abstract

Blockchain technology, which is impossible for people and businesses to ignore and brings great changes at the sectors where it is used, contributes to the solution of many problems at businesses. However, it has not been applied in the field of supply chain and logistics to the expected extent and there are the limited number of studies in the literature on this subject compared to other fields. In this context, the aim of the study is to explain blockchain technology in detail, to ensure that the technology is fully recognized, to create awareness on businesses by explaining its benefits with examples of use in supply chain and logistics activities, and to contribute to later researchers by identifying the gaps in the literature by analyzing the literature. As a result of the exploratory research, it was determined that blockchain technology contributes to the solution of many problems, especially reliability, cost, flexibility, delays, transparency, and low performance. Considering the result of the literature analysis, it has been concluded that academic studies on blockchain technology in the field of supply chain and logistics are not sufficient, and the number of these studies should be increased in order for the technology to be learned and used by more businesses in the relevant field.
