Overview - Blockchain in logistics operations

A logistics blockchain that

1 - Operates without

Directly employing courier/package handler or individuals working in operations
Directly owing any assets like vehicle, rental, or owned property used for operations
Directly owing space capacity in air-cargo
Directly owing hardware required for operations

2 - Owns the block-chain process/software to run logistics but field operations owned and operated by everyone in the blockchain process

Blocks represent operational functions

Each block signifies an operational function and multiple set of blocks in an order defines the end to end movement of each package
Ownership of blocks are decentralized and based on AI-based parameters and algorithms
Blocks are connected from pickup till delivery to create system-defined 'block-path'

Block-path (with AI) for each package establishes two important goals

1. Pre-determine the optimum routing path for the package

2. Track, monitor, and action the actual routing against the pre-determined path
