What is the role of RFID chips in logistics?
Solution
Radio-frequency identification (RFID) uses electromagnetic fields to automatically identify and
track tags attached to objects. The tags contain electronically stored information. Passive tags
collect energy from a nearby RFID reader's interrogating radio waves. Active tags have a local
power source such as a battery and may operate at hundreds of meters from the RFID reader.
Unlike a barcode, the tag need not be within the line of sight of the reader, so it may be
embedded in the tracked object. RFID is one method for Automatic Identification and Data
Capture (AIDC).[1]
The emergence of RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) technology has been greatly increased
efficiency in the production process management, material flow management, logistics and
transport, retail and distribution and other fields of the national economy industries, including
electronic information industry. RFID may eventually replace the ubiquitous bar code in the
future and become the main technology in logistics and supply chain management field
RFID in Logistics Management
Logistics management involves the efficient control of some or all of the supply chain functions,
including:
– Product research and development
– Sourcing and purchasing
– Manufacturing
– Production planning
– Sales, marketing, and forecasting
– Inventory management
– Cross-docking and flow-through
– Customer service
– Transportation
– Freight payment
– Information reporting
Using RFID logistics tracking has helped many organizations solve the main challenge at every
node in their supply chains: the lack of visibility of logistics data. RFID technology is a powerful
solution that improves asset visibility, data quality, inventory management, and interoperability
in an end-to-end integrated supply chain. In fact, the U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) issued a
mandate in 2005 that requires all of their suppliers to use RFID in marking any items that are
sold to the DoD. The need for this mandate arose from decades of logistical challenges faced by
the military with regard to the supply chain.
RFID has proven to alleviate various logistical problems associated with the DoD supply chain.
RFID technology, in combination with the Internet, allows the DoD to disseminate accurate,
real-time data to commanders worldwide so that assets can be easily located and used according
to the Department’s highest priorities.
