KPMG in Australia, China and Japan have launched KPMG Origins, a
blockchain-based 'track and trace' platform to support
industries including agriculture, resources, manufacturing and
financial services.
The platform brings together a number of emerging technologies
including blockchain, internet of things sensors (IoT), as well as
data and analytics tools to provide transparency and traceability
to trading partners across complex industries. KPMG Origins allows
these trading partners to communicate unique product information
across their supply chains, and in particular to end users, while
reducing operational complexities.
Organisations trialling the KPMG Origins platform include
CANEGROWERS, the peak body for Queensland's sugarcane growers;
SunRice, one of Australia's largest food exporters; and leading
riesling producer, Mitchell Wines.
