Blockchain Inventory Technology Solutions

Project Description:

BITS integrates an inventory tracker with a ticketing system to deal with any serialized assets. This information is all stored as cryptographic hash’s encapsulated by blockchain security. Due to our initial client’s department dissolving, we have utilized the existing technology we created to assist in our new clients’ needs. As Richard Hagemeyer transition from our Algonquin College technology staff mentor to Piicomm employee, he saw further use for our project as an inventory system. This system would be highly beneficial to Piicomm as their customers require secure data validation from public and private healthcare, government, transportation and telecommunications. We have since designed our product around Piicomm’s needs, thanks to our weekly meetings with Richard’s input on beneficial integrations keeping security at the helm.

With the domino of Algonquin College’s Micro-Credential Division closure into our project left without a client, we scrambled for a new purpose. With Piicomm’s vision, we were about to pivot successfully. This pivot in our project’s scope meant we faced our most formidable challenge; produce a new product in under four months. Since our initial project was solely based on diploma blockchain technology, our remaining time was spend integrating this into a new user interface from both the provider and client sides. We wanted to ensure every need of our new client was met, knowing we had lost months of progress. This pressure fortified our team’s time management ability as all of our members were participating in a full course load while working full or part-time.

Having Piicomm’s acknowledgement of our progression was the reassurance that pushed us to finish the product to the state you see it in. As it stands, our BITS product will cease this semester. We hope that our final product draws enough attention from Piicomm to integrate into their software development group.
