RFID technology eliminates the myriad issues that come with manual container tracking. Indexing check-in/check-out by hand is error-prone – miss (or misplace) a single asset, and it’s likely gone forever – at great expense to the manufacturer. Barcode-based tracking systems are only slightly better; the manual element (and its potential for error) still remains, resulting in lost containers – and wasted time and money.
RFID technology, however, automates the process – in a professionally deployed system, the tags and readers essentially do all the work, providing users with only the information they need, when they need it. This is best accomplished via careful planning and consultation with industry experts to determine – among other factors – proper tag selection, attachment and placement, portal placement and information workflows.
In addition, RFID asset managment and tracking systems are typically compatible with legacy databases and asset management applications. There’s no need to re-write serial numbers or change identifiers; RFID solutions are more than capable of handling global returnable asset identifiers (GRAIs), serial shipping container codes (SSCCs), or whatever you’re currently using.
