Lojistik sektöründe blockchaın yazılım seçimi ve risk analizi

In this study, an international logistics company's blockchain software selection process was examined. Even though blockchain technologies have many advantages in the utilization, they also include many risks. For instance, blockchain technology may cause difficulty in software updates and not work-in harmony with IoT, and difficulty in adaptability to the logistics business process. Above and the other risks given in this study were determined. Risks' importance degrees were calculated by using DEMATEL method. Our results demonstrated that continuity risks (16.910%), privacy risks (16.305%), and financial risks (16.298%) compromise almost half of the whole risks for using blockchain software technology in the logistics sector. After risk assessment, it was aimed to select the best blockchain software for the logistics company by aiming to minimize and dissipate the risk factors obtained from the risk assessment. Cost and speed of the software, privacy concerns, logistics issues related to using a blockchain software in logistics business activities, the functionality of the software, and developer availability were taken into consideration during identifying selection criteria. These criteria were weighted with Buckley's Fuzzy AHP. The logistics company has 4 alternative blockchain softwares which are Tradelens, Cargosmart, Shipchain, and Origintrail. The selection procedure was completed by using Fuzzy TOPSIS method.
