Abstract

Materials Requirements Planning (MRP) system focuses on planning and ensuring the availability of raw materials, parts and components, as needed during production stages, This requires highly, accurate determination of required quantities of production inputs and reliable delivery schedules. Consequently, it necessitates the development of robust and accurate databases with the organization’s suppliers. Block chain technology is one of the most important technologies of the Fourth Industrial Revolution, enabling stakeholders (organizations, partners, and individuals) to interact directly without intermediaries. This technology rely on peer-to-peer networks, and allows sharing data between the partners within a secure, encrypted platform. This research aims to design a Material Requirements Planning (MRP) system using blockchain technology in Italian Chaizlonat Furniture Exhibition/Baghdad (research site), with Corner (ES) product (research case), this by design blockchain platform that ensures Sharing the data required by the exhibition and suppliers about the corner, its components, Production and supplying timings, and tracks supply procedures without intermediaries. The research findings demonstrate the efficiency of the blockchain platform in meeting customer demand on time, eliminating the quantities and cost of stock, and increasing the profits from the corners.
