AI Dizital Solutions was founded in March 2020 to track products across complex supply chain networks. Their team of developers in the UK and India is eager to expand their blockchain expertise and improve their secure documenting and tracking capabilities.

Currently, the company is developing a minimum viable product (MVP) of a supply chain/mesh tracking and monitoring using Blockchain and IoT technologies. A number of proof-of-concept trials are underway with various ‘friendly users’. The aim is to prove the technology and gain feedback. Although it is early days, this ‘lean’ approach will help to ensure that the solution is designed based on user experience. High-level documentation exists (functional spec), which is being converted to a technical spec. The intended unique selling point (USP) is to be able to manage a complex supply mesh end-to-end in real-time, providing customers with transparency and traceability of key product parameters (source, current, location, quality, etc.) and rapid-response capability.

AI Dizital is targeting the pharmaceutical sector, where new regulations are planned for drug supply with the Drug Supply Chain Security Act. AI Dizital has a deep understanding of these regulations and will provide conformant solutions coupled with consulting services. The demand for such solutions will hence be high, but competition will inevitably require the company to maintain a constant lead on innovation.
