The Benefits of Adding Item-Level RFID

Manufacturers, warehouses and distribution centers have moved from tracking pallets with RFID to employing item-level tags that can pass inventory data from packaging to store shelves. As these programs spread and the information platform behind them opens up to more partners, manufacturers are best positioned to introduce tagging at their stage of the supply chain. RFID is supplanting barcodes for many applications because it can be scanned much more quickly, a benefit initially felt by the retailers themselves. Distribution centers were the next to start seeing benefits because inventory controls and order fulfillment can be verified as shipments move through multiple gates.
