Currently, the expansion of the supply chain of organizations has encouraged theorists to turn towards new methods and technologies for improving performance. The block chain technology has recently received attention due to some of the features that it possesses. Therefore, the objective of the present article is to assess the feasibility of utilizing blockchain technology for managing the supply chain defense industry. Additionally, the study purports to assess the feasibility of developing the capabilities of this technology based on the needs of Iranian defense industry. For this purpose, the modus operandi of this paper first relied on employing the Delphi method for identifying the relevant performance criteria with regard to the utilization of the blockchain technology for the defense industry supply chain.
