The use of RFID in supply chain management is significantly increasing everyday as RFID standards are established and best practices are defined, providing an assurance and a solid framework of implementation, even for late-comers to RFID. This innovative technology, through its various applications, will soon become a standard tool in automatic identification supplanting the barcode. Present day manufacturers and distributors cannot afford to dismiss the potential of RFID without carrying out some kind of evaluation.
As stated in past RFID technology reviews, the main obstacles to RFID adoption were tag prices and standardization issues. However, present day discussions and analyses prevail on how both of these are increasingly fading away. Prices are falling through joint technological advances of leading RFID hardware & software companies, and standards are being ratified by ISO and are being accepted worldwide. This realization pushes RFID into most organization’s long term operational plans. The question remains, what to do in the mean time while one prepares for it?
