Abstract: ABSTRACT BLOCKCHAIN-ENABLED SECURE AND TRANSPARENT SUPPLY CHAIN MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS OF PHARMACEUTICAL MANUFACTURING AND METHOD THEREOF The present invention relates to a blockchain-enabled secure and transparent supply-chain management system (100) for pharmaceutical manufacturing. The system (100) utilizes optimized smart contracts deployed on a blockchain network to automate, monitor, and record all stages of the pharmaceutical production lifecycle. The system (100) comprises multiple interacting entities including suppliers, manufacturers, transporters, inspectors, and administrators, each performing specific roles within the pharmaceutical workflow. The system (100) features a decentralized architecture distributing data across network nodes, an immutable ledger tracking medicine production stages, web-based interfaces with blockchain wallet authentication, and role-based access control. A three-stage manufacturing process with quality inspection between stages ensures product integrity, with inspectors assigning quality grades on a 1-10 scale. A key innovation is the smart contract optimization framework that achieves significant reduction in gas consumption and execution time without compromising system integrity, resulting in an efficient, scalable, and cost-effective solution for pharmaceutical manufacturing management.
