The collaboration will roll out a B2P (Blockchain for Procure-to-Pay) digital platform to link up with AWC’s supply chain network. The platform is designed to support extensive digital procurement and payments, bolstering the platform’s sustainability features with accurate, transparent, and verifiable technologies, along with SCB’s Supply Chain Financing services, which increase liquidity for entrepreneurs on B2P systems by allowing them to access financial loans directly from the Bank. This implementation will create a streamlined all-in-one platform and deliver long-term benefits to supply chain networks.

Wallapa Traisorat Chief Executive Officer and President, Asset World Corp Public Company Limited (AWC) said that, "AWC is pleased to collaborate with Siam Commercial Bank and Digital Ventures on the adoption of blockchain technology. This satisfies the requirements of project development and will quickly drive exponential growth in the Thai real estate industry and advancements in digital technology for efficient end-to-end supply chain processes. This partnership marks an important milestone for the real estate industry as the digital era develops in a meaningful manner. Under its corporate transformation plan, AWC is always striving to grow its strength and efficiency with partners from all industries through digital transformation. As part of the plan, the Company will implement a B2P platform in procurement and payments with business partners in order to improve efficiency, convenience, speed, safety, transparency, accuracy, and reduce inspection time. It will serve to reinforce the confidence of AWC’s partners and pass on the potential of holistic values to develop a strong network of alliances throughout the value chain, while strengthening the business operations of the whole Thai real estate industry."

B2P is the first and only blockchain platform available in Thailand to transform the procurement and payment system. Siam Commercial Bank and Digital Ventures have collaborated on an ongoing basis to address the operational needs of each customer in their respective businesses. This is an additional significant step for the B2P platform trusted by the country’s major real estate developer AWC, who recognizes the importance of adopting digital technology for their operational processes in order to improve AWC’s long-term efficiency and competitiveness. The implementation also plays an essential role in enhancing business operations in the Thai real estate industry by leveraging the transparency and dependability of blockchain technology.
