Blockchains, a disruptive technology with potentially many applications in modern‐day supply chain (SC) transactions, have not been adequately reflected by theory. Researchers and business managers must understand where and when blockchains’ application may be expected and investigated. The present study clarifies the discussion about blockchain application areas (BAAs) in SC transactions and their relevance for businesses. This study combines the findings from three methodological approaches: an extant literature review, a Delphi study, and a survey of 151 German machinery and equipment sector business managers. The results further our understanding of blockchains’ business opportunities among SC transactions and verify and extend Iansiti and Lakhani’s (Harvard Business Review 2017; 95: 118) blockchain adoption framework. Verified customer reviews and product quality certification are identified as the most relevant blockchain usages in SC transactions. Interestingly, we anticipate the least likely adoption of blockchains to occur for document‐signing processes despite arguments within the literature that suggest otherwise. Two newly identified BAAs—logistics and delivery systems—and token‐curated registries rank among the top four most relevant. The present study’s valuation of BAAs advances theory and will likely affect business strategies by indicating where, when, and why businesses should participate in blockchain networks.

区块链在供应链交易中的应用

区块链是一种破坏性技术,在现代供应链(SC)交易中可能具有许多应用,但理论上并未充分体现这一点。研究人员和业务经理必须了解可能在何时何地预期和调查区块链的应用。本研究澄清了关于SC交易中的区块链应用领域(BAA)及其与业务的相关性的讨论。这项研究结合了三种方法学的发现:现有文献综述,Delphi研究以及对151名德国机械和设备行业业务经理的调查。结果进一步加深了我们对SC交易中区块链商机的理解,并验证并扩展了Iansiti和Lakhani的《哈佛商业评论》2017; 95:118)区块链采用框架。经验证的客户评论和产品质量认证被认为是SC交易中最相关的区块链用法。有趣的是,尽管文献中有相反的论点,我们预计在文件签名过程中采用区块链的可能性最小。前两个最相关的BAA(物流和交付系统)以及令牌管理的注册表位于最相关的前四名中。本研究对BAA的评估推动了理论的发展,并可能通过指示企业应在何时何地参与区块链网络来影响业务战略。
