WHAT IS RFID?
• Radio Frequency Identification describes technologies that use radio waves to mechanically recognize people or objects.

R F I D
HISTORY OF RFID
• “RFID was founded in 1946, by the Soviet Union, which retransmitted incident radio waves with audio information;”
• “The device was a passive listening device not an identification tag as it has been attributed as a predecessor to RFID technology.”

• Mario Cardullo is the father of RFID;
• He was the corporate planning officer to the chairman of the Communications Satellite Corporation (Comsat);
• After leaving Comsat, he put together a business proposal to develop the EKG terminal and his new idea, the RFID tag. Many people were interested in his ideas and gave him the necessary funds. With these funds he started the company ComServ;
• Mario Cardullo received the first patent for a read-write RFID tag a passive radio transponder with memory.

PARTS OF RFID TECHNOLOGY
RFID tags: • Passive:
– requires no interior power source;
– only active when a reader is nearby to power them;
• Active, or semi-passive (also known as battery-assisted):– requires power source, usually a small battery;
• RFID can hold up to 10Kbits of data.

• Will not disclose any information on how much money is being saved using RFID;
• According to an estimate published in Fortune Magazine, Wal-Mart will receive a return of 21.5% on capital with the use of RFID.

WAL-MART’S ROI
Christine Y. Chen (2004), “Wal-Mart Drives a New Tech Boom,” Fortune, Vol. 149, No. 13, pg. 202

25
• Short-term– the cost of RFID overshadows any trickle-
down effect received through increased sales;
• Long-term– increased visibility of the supply chain will
help suppliers better production scheduling and inventory management.

• “Analysis at the university’s RFID Research Center indicates in test scores that an automated RFID-enabled inventory system improves accuracy by 13%;”
• This finding is important because inventory inaccuracy can lead to a 10% loss of profit;
• With reports of inventory inaccuracy being as high as 65%, the 13% improvement rate demonstrates how RFID can significantly improve this problem.

KEY ISSUES FOR SUPPLIERS

• Wal-Mart pushes the cost of RFID onto its suppliers;
• AMR Research estimated that the Wal-Mart suppliers as a whole have spent over $250 million on RFID technology and implementation;
• Factors affecting cost are the number of tags needed, complexity of tags, types of products, and the distribution environment.

• There are several RFID tag classes and there has not been an official standard which complicates the application and use of RFID.

KEY ISSUES - STANDARD
A
R F I D
33
• Suppliers are realizing that the information being collected through RFID cannot be stored or used properly with existing databases;
• Updates are needed to filter information especially in areas of business intelligence tools, data mining, & the use of standard data definitions across the corporation;
• The biggest obstacle of making RFID work is the managing of information.

“A case of product leaves the manufacturer and is tracked and instantly routed when it reaches a Wal-Mart distribution center. There’s no need to rip open a case and inspect the contents because the RFID reader has already identified the item. At the store, the goods are monitored in real-time so there’s no need for inventory. When the shelves are empty, RFID readers alert workers to restock shelves. If Wal-Mart’s inventory is depleted, a replenishment message is automatically sent to the supplier.”
