This project brings together university researchers, a Collegial Center for Technology Transfer - CCTT (Merinov), two young companies working in the sector of IT management tools (EOS Nation and reelyActive) and an NGO (Cercle-i) in order to address important research and development challenges facing the Seafood Supply Chain of the Gaspésie and Magdalen Islands region. The research team will look at a possible adoption of emerging technologies (including Blockchain, Internet of Things and Analytics) to improve the traceability of seafood, thus increasing the transparency of information, supply chain security and agility. Ultimately, this project may also have a positive impact on the sound management of the natural resources of the seafood industry in Quebec. To face this multidimensional and multidisciplinary complexity, the objective of this project is to develop a simulation platform integrating business aspects (supply chain management and data management) and technical aspects (integration of different emerging technologies) in order to be able to assess the potential gains and risks of an innovative traceability system. This new platform will function as a decision support tool for project partners and stakeholders in the supply chain (e.g., fishermen, processing plants, carriers, distributors, brokers, retailers, ministries, etc.), since different scenarios can be tested and evaluated before proceeding with the implementation. Identifying the best organizational and technical architectures may increase the chances of success of any project to implement a new traceability system in the future.

该项目汇集了大学研究人员、大学技术转让中心 - CCTT (Merinov)、两家从事 IT 管理工具领域工作的年轻公司 (EOS Nation 和 relyActive) 以及一家非政府组织 (Cercle-i)，以解决加斯佩西岛和马格达伦群岛地区海鲜供应链面临的重要研发挑战。研究团队将考虑采用新兴技术（包括区块链、物联网和分析）来提高海鲜的可追溯性，从而提高信息透明度、供应链安全性和敏捷性。最终，该项目还可能对魁北克海鲜行业自然资源的健全管​​理产生积极影响。为了面对这种多维度、多学科的复杂性，该项目的目标是开发一个集成业务方面（供应链管理和数据管理）和技术方面（不同新兴技术的集成）的模拟平台，以便能够评估创新追溯系统的潜在收益和风险。这个新平台将作为供应链中项目合作伙伴和利益相关者（例如渔民、加工厂、承运商、分销商、经纪人、零售商、政府部门等）的决策支持工具，因为在实施之前可以测试和评估不同的场景。确定最佳的组织和技术架构可能会增加未来实施新的追溯系统的任何项目的成功机会。
