The main objective of this research article was to describe the level of response of suppliers that apply a private blockchain network and their degree of contribution to accounting in the construction company LM SA, year 2024, having as research criteria those proposed by Christie (2018) for the Blockchain variable and Grigg (2024) for the triple entry variable. It was a study with a quantitative approach and descriptive scope of non-experimental cross-sectional design, the study population was a construction company in Peru, and the sample was the supply chain implemented in the company and its encryption in blockchain technology. The results obtained show that the level of response from suppliers who apply a private blockchain network in the construction company LM SA, year 2024 is of a medium level with 63% and their contribution from the supply chain to accounting is 23%. It was concluded that in a process of implementing blockchain technologies, companies must consider accounting as an impact factor, to improve their economic and financial indicators.
