Case Study Analysis COMPANY BACKGROUND Set up in 2003 by CEO Jason Robbins. Idea behind setting up this company was the emerging supply chain management trends including the use of RFID technology to track pallets and cases of goods after they left the shipping dock en route to downstream supply chain positions. Morrison developed and manufactured RFID tags known as smart labels for retail and pharmaceutical industries. RFID Radio-frequency identification (RFID) is the wireless noncontact

Radio frequency identification (RFID) According to Violino (2005)‚ radio frequency identification (RFID) is a system that able to transmit the identity of a product or person through accessing the form of a unique serial number wirelessly by using radio waves. In addition‚ radio frequency identification (RFID) technology has to work together with RFID tag and RFID reader to complete the data collection process‚ RFID tag consists of microchips that able to store as much as two kilobytes of data which

Intro 1.0 Capital Safety is the global leader of fall protection‚ confined space and rescue equipment. RFID (radio frequency identification) is a wireless data collection technology. RFID technology has the ability to identify‚ track and assign information to unique items without direct contact or line-of-sight scanning. I-Safe TM consists of passive RFID tags (transponders) that can be scanned by mobile readers (receivers) that synchronize data to a web-based secure information portal.

how radio frequency ID will save company money in future “Radio-frequency identification (RFID) is the wireless non-contact use of radio-frequency electromagnetic fields to transfer data‚ for the purposes of automatically identifying and tracking tags attached to objects.”1 As a result‚ it is an extremely powerful way in examining the situation or the existence of certain objects because the RFID signals emitted by the tags could be caught easily with monitoring or detecting devices. Without doubt
