“…While the main concepts of blockchain, making transparency and traceability, reliability and security, automatic contracts/verification, incentives, and tokenization are proven to have various potential supports for assessing company or industry performance going forward (Hendayani & Fernando, 2022;Yarkoni, 2022), data security and accountability (Kiu, Lai, Chia, & Wong, 2022) Including in decision-making and policies in the automation industry (Bajar, Kamat, Shanker, & Barve, 2022). Blockchain technology can assist in product quality management and control (R. W. Ahmad et al, 2022) and blockchain helps in creating competitive advantages and improving organizational and government performance (Sheel & Nath, 2019).…”

This research is to offer the use of blockchain for the traceability of information about halal food as a form of developing a traceability system that ensures and maintains the quality of halal food and drinks in Indonesia. This research departs from the rampant counterfeiting of products, which also continues to increase, especially in relation to food and beverages. This causes huge losses from an economic standpoint, both for companies and producers, has an impact on the country's economy, and erodes consumer confidence due to unclear information, especially regarding confusing halal traceability. This research is a literature review developed through the Value Chain Analysis Framework. A value chain analysis framework that supports blockchain in reminding companies to focus on development that will help achieve the Indonesian halal industry supply chain in accordance with government standards engaged in the Indonesian halal industry. This study develops the concept of a halal value chain that strengthens the role of blockchain technology and pays attention to the finances in each block needed by the supply chain.

Purpose This study aims to explore the potential application of blockchain technology in Lean Six Sigma (LSS) project through a proposed blockchain-LSS (BLSS) model. The proposed model can tackle real-time problems in information sharing, transparency and traceability in every stage of the LSS project. Design/methodology/approach The scoping review approach is used to develop the integrated model of the BLSS approach for operational excellence. The proposed model is validated through expert’s input, which is collected by a questionnaire survey method. Findings The prime function of the proposed BLSS model is the information sharing among the project team and real-time monitoring, transparency, traceability and immutability in the Define-Measure-Analyze-Improve-Control phase. The proposed model also consists the information about the role of blockchain features at each phase of the LSS project. The project team and industry employees can trace the success of the project at every moment, resulting in trust buildup and the elimination of fake data. Moreover, there would be no disputes among various sections/shops of the plant and employees to share the real information. Practical implications This paper provides guidelines to practitioners and managers for integrating the LSS approach and blockchain. The blockchain helps managers and practitioners in better data traceability and transparency, monitoring of data as well as more sustainable LSS project management. Originality/value To the best of the authors’ knowledge, this is the first research attempt that developed an integrated model of blockchain and LSS approach to maintaining the immutable records of assets in projects and targeted Industry 4.0.
