Last updated 2 months ago

PROJECT OVERVIEW

  • Product: Dockflow Logistics Enablement Platform

  • Solution Provider: mintBlue

  • Client: Dockflow

  • Industries: ESG (sustainability compliance), Logistics (specifically maritime shipping)

  • Geographic Reach: Primarily Europe (Headquartered in Antwerp and Amsterdam, applicable to EU compliance laws)

  • BSV Integration Start Date: 2024

BUSINESS CHALLENGES

Inefficiencies or Risks:

  • Difficulty tracking CO₂ emissions in maritime logistics

  • Lack of transparency and standardization in carbon offsetting efforts

  • Poor data quality and disorganized storage across supply chain stakeholders

  • Manual and opaque reporting processes that hinder regulatory compliance

Why Traditional Systems Were Insufficient:

  • Existing systems could not deliver real-time carbon tracking and auditability

  • Emission offset projects lacked verifiability and traceability

  • Difficulty in complying with emerging EU regulations like CSRD and CSDDD due to disparate data formats and systems

WHY BSV?

BSV as the Ideal Solution:

  • Enables real-time notarization of logistics events

  • Offers tamper-proof, traceable, and transparent data logs

  • High scalability and low transaction fees suitable for complex, high-volume supply chain ecosystems

  • Stable protocol ideal for long-term infrastructure development

  • Alignment with EU regulatory standards for data integrity and audit trails

Comparison to Other Blockchain Options:

  • BSV was selected for its unique ability to scale (e.g., 50+ million transactions/day) and maintain low fees, compared to other blockchains that are often constrained by throughput or cost limitations

SOLUTION ARCHITECTURE

Overview:

  • mintBlue integrated its blockchain SDK into Dockflow’s Logistics Enablement Platform

  • All supply chain events (e.g., movement of shipping containers) are logged and notarised on the BSV blockchain

Key Components:

  • Data Logging: Real-time event logging via the mintBlue SDK

  • Data Verification & Access: Companies retain ownership and control, enabling fine-grained access and privacy

Role of Partners:

  • mintBlue:

Provided blockchain infrastructure and SDK

  • Sumthing (external partner):

Supports verifiable nature restoration for carbon offsetting

IMPLEMENTATION PROCESS

Integration with Legacy Systems:

  • mintBlue offers standardised APIs compatible with common programming languages, facilitating integration with existing systems

OUTCOMES & BUSINESS IMPACT

Quantifiable Improvements:

  • Real-time CO₂ tracking and reporting

  • Streamlined compensation via verified restoration projects

  • Enhanced compliance with CSRD and CSDDD regulations

  • Embedded carbon tracking within existing workflows — no downtime for Dockflow users

Before vs. After Metrics:

  • Before: Manual, non-transparent carbon tracking; uncertain verification

  • After: Automated, real-time, verified emissions tracking and reporting

Stakeholder Feedback:

  • Dockflow co-founder noted the platform is now “more efficient and environmentally responsible,” with new standards set for sustainability and transparency

CHALLENGES & MITIGATIONS

Challenges:

  • Difficulty in accurately measuring and verifying emissions

  • Lack of trust in carbon offsetting claims

  • Complexity of onboarding diverse supply chain partners with varying data practices

Mitigations:

  • Use of blockchain ensures immutable, timestamped records

  • Notarised events provide proof of occurrence

  • Blockchain-backed reporting creates confidence and auditability for regulators and partners

FUTURE VISION

Expansion Plans:

  • Dockflow aims to serve as a compliance backbone for other industries beyond logistics

  • Potential integration with other platforms and regulatory bodies

Additional BSV Functionalities to Explore:

  • Further automation through smart contracts

  • Potential micropayment use cases for carbon credits or partner incentivisation

  • Use of verifiable credentials and identities in cross-border logistics

TESTIMONIAL HIGHLIGHTS

“This partnership with mintBlue accelerates our vision of making maritime logistics more efficient and environmentally responsible. Together, we set new standards for sustainability and transparency in the supply chain.”

— Pauline Van Ostaeyen, Co-Founder, Dockflow

“Now all the users of the Dockflow platform can notarise their events of shipping containers moving around onto the blockchain. This brings proof of what happened at a point in time.”

— Niels van den Bergh, CEO, mintBlue
