This kind of supply chain project only works if everyone in that chain adopts their procedures. How are they getting everyone in the chain to cooperate and how do they deal with it if some refuse (eg. because of the costs associated with training personnel and getting new equipment) or fail to use it?
That's a nice question...so you think that at the end of the day there will be only a couple blockchain-supply chain related products around? Because, speaking of softwares, if you look at ERPs for example, you either use SAP or Oracle, no others My question came from the perspective that it is hard for everyone in the supply chain to change their current ways of doing things. Especially if it means going from low tech to complicated high tech stuff. If some people in the supply chain keep using pens, paper and faxes, it might be quite hard to make the LaneAxis blockchain work. Then again, high tech does not have to be harder to use. Photography used to require intricate knowledge of light, film, chemicals, lenses - and a lot of patience. Nowadays everyone has a photo camera in their pocket which is no more complicated than pointing and a tap on the screen.

I can only think of regular calls the drivers do to their headquarters to update their location.

what is your mission?
there primary mission is to directly connect shippers with carriers - bypassing expensive third party brokers - and in the process driving the global logistics supply chain into the blockchain era. currently, two million truckload shipments operate daily in america, with most still relying on archaic technologies, such as fax machines, phone calls, and paper processes to initiate, manage and track shipments. laneaxis fixes this by implementing the latest technological solution that promises to cut costs and increase efficiency across all supply chain channels. are they experienced? sure, 6 years on the market any info on how the market will develop in the future?

I just hope you'll get it done right and get companies on board. That will be the key of success, if they manage to get big companies on board the success will be very likely.

The thing is that some people and businesses are so traditional to a point when they don't want to change their way of doing things even if it means spending more when they could've saved otherwise. I think there are fewer people like that in crypto, but LaneAxis is trying to revolutionize a transportation industry, so they will really need to make an effort in order to implement a good adoption.

Actually, that is an interesting example of high tech not automatically being better than low tech. There are good reasons not to make GPS tracking data public: privacy of the driver and safety of the goods. Imagine everyone being able to know exactly where and when a van with expensive goods is driving.

The transporters' position must only be known by parties involved in the supply chain (whitin that particular shipment) to avoid such things as everyone know exactly where you are

For some industries it's crucial while transporting goods.

It's a loop i think, but i prefer drivers and goods' safety in the first place than making everyone see where the precious goods are. Lots of things can happen on the road.
