iChain 2.0: the new release that enhances control, traceability and collaboration in the supply chain

The modern supply chain requires real-time visibility, immediate responsiveness and increasingly integrated digital processes. 

But how do you actually build an ecosystem capable of responding to these needs, with tools that speak the same language as those who work in the field every day and those who drive strategic decisions?

With the release of iChain 2.0, Wiseside is taking a decisive step in this direction.

This is not just a software update: it is the concrete evolution of a solution designed to offer complete traceability, distributed control and seamless collaboration across the entire supply chain.

A solution designed to connect processes, data and people

iChain is the Cloud/IoT software platform developed by Wiseside for the digital management of processes within corporate and collaborative ecosystems.

By creating digital twins of real processes, iChain provides businesses with a detailed and up-to-date view of operational activities, supporting predictive analytics, dynamic visuals and more informed decisions.

Thanks to integration with IoT devices, legacy systems or manual entries, the data collected is structured according to GS1 international standards to ensure interoperability, scalability and security.

The result is a solution capable of communicating with all players in the supply chain, adapting to the most complex and dynamic contexts.

The main new features of release 2.0

The new version of iChain introduces targeted improvements designed to enhance operational efficiency and make the user experience even more intuitive. Here are the key areas of focus:

1. iFlow: modelling processes with a shared BPMN language

The main new feature introduced in release 2.0 is the integration of the iFlow module based on BPM (Business Process Modelling) module.

Thanks to this tool, companies can visually represent their processes, simulate their behaviour, monitor each phase and generate specific events linked to each operational step.

BPM thus becomes a bridge between technical and managerial skills: an operational and visual language that is easy to understand and helps to facilitate dialogue between the different levels of the organisation.

As Pinuccia Zarino, CEO of Wiseside, explains:

‘Modelling a process is often the first step towards gaining a complete and shared vision of it. Integrating BPM into iChain means providing companies with a familiar interface for tackling a conscious digital transformation.’

2. Intelligent iTask notifications: know what’s happening, when it’s happening

Along with the BPM module, the new version of iChain also introduces iTask: an advanced notification system designed to communicate every relevant event along the operational process in a timely and accurate manner.

Each notification is generated automatically based on predefined conditions and reaches the right people at the right time, reducing response times and improving the fluidity of collaborative activities.

Practical application: the AgriFood case

This feature was developed based on direct feedback from customers and is already being used successfully in highly complex sectors, such as AgriFood, where information flows must be constantly synchronised between operators, offices and external partners.

Release 2.0 is already active in a major project in the agri-food sector, which is characterised by a complex, multi-player supply chain with a high level of traceability.

The new features have already proven their value, improving real-time visibility, responsiveness and consistency of actions shared among all parties involved.

Wiseside will soon share more details about this project: real-world evidence of how iChain 2.0 can be a real accelerator of operational efficiency and competitiveness.

A step forward for the digital transformation of the supply chain

With a more efficient architecture, the introduction of iFlow BPM and the iTask notification system, Wiseside confirms its commitment to building digital solutions that connect people, processes and technologies.
