Rfid Of The Automotive Industry : A Standards Based Approach Towards On Tag Data Sharing

Supply chain management systems, enterprise resource planning systems, and customer relationship management systems are all used at Comcast and are a huge part of the success of the organization. Supply chain management systems are used to track information and inventory across different region markets and nationwide. An automated tracking of inventory allows the movement of products such as modems to be available for a technician on the day of install. By using the just-in-time method it allows the delivery of the product as the customer wants it. Comcast uses an RFID tracking to optimize their supply chain management (“Why the Right”, 2016). This means there is a tag chip which stores the products electronic code so it can be tracked by

Strong investment in Information technology to streamline information flows and product flows along supply chain(RFID, Retail-Link system)

Airbus focused on IT to manage its supply chain and improve the overall efficiency. RFID implementation played a key role in improving efficiency and visibility in its supply chain. RFID was implemented in the tool loan business where it used to lend tools to its customers that were required for the maintenance of the aircraft. The whole intention to implement RFID in the tool loan department was to improve efficiency by making tools available quickly to its customers and for proper traceability.

PRADA has long been adopted management information systems into most of their business part including manufacturing, sales, and human resource management. PRADA has Group information technology director who primarily responsible for the management of the Group’s information technology system. In 2000s, by using radio frequency identification (RFID), PRADA tried to controls manufacturing system, inventory, warehousing, distribution, logistics, automatic object tracking and supply chain management. What PRADA expected from RFID technologies were improve the potential benefits of supply chain management through reduction of inventory losses, increase of the efficiency and speed of

I live close to a walmart in Burtonsville MD, so I decided to write this Paper on their Inventory System. Wal-mart, the wholesale retail monopoly, focused on developing an RFID-based electronic product code, or EPC. The electronic code would allow businesses to track shipments and inventory automatically through a system of tags and sensors. It was a potential replacement for the manual scanning of bar codes, a technology that itself revolutionized retail two decades earlier. Given the nearly non-existent cost of bar codes relative to RFID, several in the industry said, the EPC was a solution in search of a problem. Wal-Mart view RFID technology in their SMART system as a

RFID data is visible and trackable across the supply chain and reduces scanning error, stockouts and the labour required to move inventory (Shin & Eksioglu 2014, p. 633). Importantly, as Concept2creation (n.d.) shows picking and scanning cartons from the cages is labour intensive and requiring audits. Alternatively, RFID transmitters on pallets and cages, can automatically be scanned upon receipt. Cartons without RFID can be placed in totes to be tracked internally (Michel 2014,

Macy’s is known as the poster child for RFID in the retail industry. By implementing RFID technology, Macy’s gained greater visibility not only in their supply chain, but on a store level. RFID has helped them monitor stock levels more frequently so they could increase their inventory and ordering accuracy. Being more accurate has helped Macy’s meet customer’s demands. Macy’s saw a great increase in their overall sales and revenues shortly after introducing RFID in all of their stores. Earlier this year, Macy’s started a new program that employs RFID to allow Omni-channel fulfillment of consumer purchases. The program, named Pick to the Last Unit (P2LU), allows them to list goods for sale online even when there is only one such item available at the store. Macy’s omni-channel will allow customers to shop anywhere, anytime, and anyhow they choose. Their stores will be functioning as warehouses to utilize the full assortment of owned

Radio Frequency Identification Devices (RFID) have been used in the retail industry for more than fifty years as an inventory assessment application tracking product sales and distribution data for goods and services. Current trends of RFID for this industry have been favorable for hi-tech state-of-the-art industries, yet in the past years to 2014 device prices have fallen at an estimated average annual 5.3% primarily due to its characteristic as a "throwaway" inventory or control device. This market segment uses tags or labels, which are scanned and ultimately leave the store with the consumer, eventually disposing of the empty carton or used product. Retailer’s using this application method require multiple components and suppliers are

RFID (radio frequency identification) is a new technology that threatens to take the place of bar codes in the supply chain world. The technology uses electromagnetic fields to automatically identify and track tags attached to objects. This innovation can provide many benefits in logistics and may revolutionize the entire industry. But, even though the technology provides many benefits it also has many drawbacks and may not be developed enough to become industry standard. The technology also may not be beneficial or cost effective for every business and will require a total overhaul of businesses infrastructure, which can be extremely costly. Furthermore, both bar codes and RFID technology have many pros and cons, also industry may not be ready to implement RFID into their infrastructure.

tesco gains huge flexibility and performance by using rfid technology. similar and new technologies such as rtid (real time identification) can improve even exist benefits and solve problem out like

Variations of RFID technology have been in use since the 1940 's. RFID is an acronym for radio frequency identification. In application RFID is the use of radio signals to wirelessly track and identify tags that have been placed on an item. RFID is an emerging technology that is helping transportation companies, retailers, and manufacturers decrease handling times of goods and increase efficiencies at factories, warehouses, and store fronts by tracking objects with greater flexibility and less human involvement. RFID technology is unique and more adaptable than other tracking systems because it does not require a direct line of sight between the scanner and the object being identified. RFID systems can also identify more than one object simultaneously. This flexibility and efficiency adds the type of value that is paramount in just in time principles. This paper will describe RFID technology in detail, and discuss its current uses in security and access control, toll roads, and supply chain management.

Technology is constantly improving and new and efficient systems are introduced in market to make business processes more efficient than before. Businesses who believe in future and want to take them to the next level always looks for technological improvements, in terms of production and efficient process etc. Technology have helped business in various levels from raw material sourcing to production and till taking products to end consumers. The purpose of this study is to explore the improvements introduced after applying RFIDs. Through RFID Technology we can track our shipments, schedule deliveries, and maintain our inventories efficiently. Using RFIDs will optimize processes, overall efficiency will increase, with less amount of errors. In this research, researchers explores the hurdles and benefits of adapting RFIDs (Radio-frequency identification), how many companies have implemented RFID and common issues encountered in implementation of RFIDs.

RFID (Radio-Frequency Identification), a technology once limited to tracking cattle, is now tracking consumer products worldwide. Many manufacturers use the tags to track the location of each product they make from the time it 's made until carried out of the retail store. Outside the realm of retail merchandise, RFID tags are tracking vehicles, airline passengers, Alzheimer 's patients and pets. Soon, they may even track the consumer’s preference for chunky or creamy peanut butter. Some opponents of RFID technology are saying this technology is becoming too common in our everyday lives. Most people are not even aware of all ways these tags are integrated into our lives and the ways this technology may affect them. RFID technology is under the main supervisory body of the ISO/IEC. The ISO/ETC is a joint technical committee of the International Standards Organization (ISO) and the International Electro technical Commission (IEC). Its purpose is to develop, maintain and promote standards in the fields of information technology and Information and Communications Technology (RFID Technology, 2012).

Barcoding is governed by Universal Product Code UPC whereas RFID is governed by electronic product codes EPC. In its evolution Barcodes were categorized as 1D, 2D and 3D with increasing capacity to store information like manufacturer, product type, batch number etc. Similarly RFID has Active and Passive tags that are being chosen according to the necessity and level of security. An Auto-ID system implementation to a warehouse or a facility takes into account strategic,
