THE SITUATION HAS CHANGED DRASTICALLY

Vaccination is one of the most effective ways to: Prevent the spread 5th February 2021 Reduce the impact of infectious diseases

9th March 2020

First Canadian citizen that loses their life due to the virus

9th December 2020

Canada authorized the first vaccine

New supply and distribution challenges of vaccine

2.335 % of the population received at least one dose

Protect us against COVID-19

Major supply problems of specific PPE

Lack of digitalized patient data collection

Lack of vaccine distribution transparency

Reliance on suppliers from China (90%)

Need to recover and prevent another disruption

Lack of accurate supply chain mapping

Absence of vaccine simulations

Lack of up-to-date ERP systems in healthcare system

Decentralized vs. centralized healthcare systems

Novelty of virus makes future planning difficult

Data quantity could require significant computing power

Partner up with AWS who can provide processing power

Great amount of data is required from various sources

Big part of data is collected, but not utilized

Collaboration between jurisdictions remain behind Use success stories from other jurisdictions to highlight practicality of platform 17


Increasing supply chain efficiency by employing a blockchain-empowered supply chain management system

Creating maximal transparency and optimization through supply chain mapping and simulation Improving resilience and cooperation between jurisdictions by introducing a collaborative knowledge-sharing platform
