Synchronize your Supply Chain with RFID

Driving efficiencies throughout your supply chain and increasing the velocity of items through the supply chain from creation to consumer is more than a business mandate today; it’s a matter of business survival. If your company doesn’t do it, your competition will. Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) is a true next-generation technology — ready, available and being implemented today — that is transforming how companies manage and extract more business value from their supply chain operations.

Whether your focus is in manufacturing, wholesale distribution, retailing, travel and transportation or throughout government, RFID will drive profitability, increase revenue, reduce operating expenses and shrink inventory levels. It promises to have the same, if not more business impact as bar code technology, which automated global supply chains and created industry leaders of its early adopters a generation ago. RFID directly affects a company’s bottom line by creating new value in the supply chain, synchronizing the movement of material and products all along the way.

It allows companies to:

• Increase visibility into their supply chain operations Respond more quickly to real-time disposition and dynamic business conditions
• Reduce errors and labor costs through increased automation Increase customer service, satisfaction and loyalty

RFID is quickly moving through a rapid adoption phase and gaining momentum, as:

• Major companies and organizations with global scope are demanding business partners or companies develop and deploy RFID applications and solutions.
• A powerful, single global standard — Gen 2 — has emerged that offers significant performance benefits, enables scalability and offers a clear deployment path.
• The benefits and return-on-investment are proven, significant, measurable — based on extensive piloting and early adopter deployments — and provide incremental profits that justify the investment.

In the following pages you will see how RFID can impact organizations all along the supply chain, from the evolution of RFID — through real-world implementation case studies. As you read on, imagine the power that RFID solutions can deliver to your organization; the technology is here today, and it can help you synchronize your supply chain — delivering a true competitive advantage.
