The challenge is to provide the supply chain with verified digital credentials and digital product passports to achieve full end-to-end transparency of goods, reduce costs across the entire supply chain from production all the way to the customer. With end-to-end digital processes, Verified Digital Credentials will completely revamp the entire supply chain process and help prevent supply chain fraud, through traceability, document digitization and authenticity, greater data security and accuracy.
Verified Digital Credential supply chain documents need to be accessible to non-experts in various industries and domains. For example, verifiable digital credentials should be ubiquitously accessible and usable by anyone in the supply chain system to:
- Easily manage and interface with supply chain documentation and determine if tampering has occurred during shipment
- Corroborate any claims made about the packaging or contents therein
