Topic

Blockchain and Smart Manufacturing

Abstract

SyncFab is a management tool built that allows for the search and procurement of parts on a blockchain network, empowering industry 4.0. Orders are secure, instant, and streamlined. The SyncFab network creates a decentralized economy between producers and buyers. No more brokers or intermediates; manufactures communicate directly peer to peer. Both parties save on fees, thus reducing prices. The economy is built around the Syncfab token, MFG, which had its ICO earlier this year. Buyers reward manufactures MFG for quotes and manufactures reward buyers MFG for reorders, thus creating a self-sustained economy.

Small, local manufactures are given a level playing field against large firms as no quotes are favored in the network. By revolutionizing the supply chain with better production quality control and more environmentally responsible manufacturing, SyncFab has partnered with San Leandro to create a smarter city.
