Rain enabled INnovation leads to RApid transformation via mashups This scenario shows a situation in which a client has instant access to inventory and lead time data of multiple suppliers of applicable replacements. Urgency, not price, will determine the actual choice. By using Google Earth, showing live data on inventory location, routing, and traffic density, and a RFID dashboard, tracking can be done visually, enabling both the client and supplier to have real-time information on the product’s location.
