Methods may involve maintaining a first secure,
distributed transaction ledger including a digital inventory of product designs for industrial products. A second secure,
distributed transaction ledger including a digital
record of an entity's physical inventory of industrial products may be maintained. The second secure,
distributed transaction ledger may be synced with a remote copy. A third secure, distributed transaction ledger including a digital
record of precursors for manufacturing the product designs in the digital inventory may be maintained. The first, second, and third secure, distributed transaction ledgers may be interrelated and updated to associate
digital records of at least some industrial products in the physical inventory of the second secure, distributed transaction ledger with corresponding product designs in the digital inventory of the first secure, distributed transaction ledger and
digital records of corresponding precursors in the third secure, distributed transaction ledger.
