RFID – Radio Frequency Identification

RFID is a technology that enables tracking of objects through radio waves with

identification of the RFID tags that are placed on the object.



Market Potential

Every company that needs effective control and inventory management

No regional restrictionsIndustrial

Field Service

Healthcare

Retail/CPG

Logistics

Government



Market Potential

Organizations that are already using RFID



RFID vs. Barcodes

RFID Barcode

Read Rate High Throughput. Multiple (>100) tags can be readsimultaneously

Very low throughput. Tags can onlybe read manually one at a time.

Line of Sight Not required. Items can be oriented in any

direction, as long as it is in the read range, and

direct line of sight is never required.

Definitely required. Scanner must

physically see each item directly to

scan, and items must be oriented in

a very specific manner.

Human CapitalVirtually none. Once up and running, the system is

completely automated.

Large Requirements. Laborers must

scan each tag.

Read / Write

Capability

More than just reading. Ability to read, write,

modify, and update.

Read only. Ability to read items and

nothing else.

Durability High. Much better protected, and can even be

internally attached, so it can be read through very

harsh environments.

Low. Easily damaged or removed;

cannot be read if dirty or greasy.

Security High. Difficult to replicate. Data can be encrypted,

password protected, or include a “kill” feature to

remove data permanently, so information stored is

much more secure.

Low. Much easier to reproduce or

counterfeit.

Event Triggering Capable. Can be used to trigger certain events (like

door openings, alarms, etc.).

Not capable. Cannot be used to

trigger events.



Forces Driving Adoption

Increased mandate

Decreased prices for technology adoption

- Use of Gen2 technology that enables lower cost for better efficiency,

better accuracy, more information and better safety

Increased acceptance

- Research done by the US Computing Technology Industry Association:

46% of the consumer goods market, 34% form the food &

beverages industry and 24% from the textile industry has already

implemented RFID solutions.



Meet minimum requirement(e.g. DoD, Wal-Mart)

Replace or supplement existingbarcode systems/applications

Increase accuracy and decreaseerror rates of existingapplications (inventorymanagement, etc.)

COMPLIANCE Increase control Reduce labor requirements

Enable WarehouseManagement

Enable JITmanufacturing/logistics

Enable real time decision

support Provide internal track/trace of

goods/people

Automate and speed processes(e.g. cross docking)

OPTIMIZATION Transform operating/business

Phases of Implementation



Bringing Business Value

Measurable impact to labor costs

Real reduction in errors via automation – reduction in mis-shipments, lost inventory,

and errors in redundant data reads

Real gains in productivity by better managing the use of skilled resources through

automation

Industry recognized qualitative impacts which returns improved customer service,

lessened warrantee handling,

Driving regulatory impacts - compliance activities to meet governmental regulations

Automated POS - skilled resources in front of customers, not behind a cash register

Real savings of 15-35% on operating costs

ROI of 7 months to a year
