Knowledge sharing enables organizations to extend beyond their boundaries and maximize its benefits. However, this process faces challenges related to privacy and ownership. This study examines the synergistic role of blockchain technology and knowledge sharing in supplier selection across various industries, including manufacturing, electronics, hardware development, software, and network equipment production. The research employs a structured questionnaire to collect cross-sectional survey data from 336 public procuring entities in factories. The data is analyzed using the Partial Least Squares (PLS) method. The findings indicate that both blockchain technology and knowledge sharing significantly enhance supplier selection efficiency. Specifically, two key features of blockchain technology—decentralization and transparency—play a crucial role in mediating the impact of knowledge sharing on supply chain performance. Moreover, when blockchain technology is integrated into knowledge sharing, supplier selection performance metrics, such as quality and delivery, show notable improvements.
