Product Engineering Case Study

BlockTrack Technical Case Study

How LayerSeven designed a blockchain-powered supply chain traceability platform.

Problem

Agricultural and logistics supply chains can suffer from poor visibility, manual tracking, middlemen dependency, and limited trust between stakeholders.

Solution

Designed a full-stack traceability platform where supply chain actors can create, transfer, and verify product batches through structured workflows and blockchain-backed verification.

Core Features

Manufacturer, distributor, and retailer roles
Organization and user management
Batch and child-batch tracking
Shipment creation and transfer history
Shipment-batch relationships
Product status tracking
On-chain hash verification
Dashboard for supply chain visibility
Map/location-based views

Technical Approach

BlockTrack uses a traditional application database for fast querying and business workflows, while blockchain-backed verification is used for traceability and tamper-resistance. This avoids putting every operational detail directly on-chain while still preserving trust where it matters.

Outcome

Built a working product prototype demonstrating end-to-end supply chain traceability, role-based workflows, batch tracking, shipment management, and blockchain-backed verification.

This case study demonstrates LayerSeven's ability to model complex business workflows, design full-stack SaaS architecture, and use blockchain practically where traceability matters.
