Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) is a promising technology of recent years and evolving as a major enabler for tracing and tracking of goods and assets around the world. Success of pilot projects and roll-outs in global organizations like Wal-Mart and METRO have raised great expectations for improving supply chain efficiency across various industries. This technology has received fair media coverage in the advanced world and wide business research has been carried out there. However, in developing economies like India, many are still unfamiliar with the technology details as well as the potential benefits it offers. Sensing this need of clear and comprehensive information on RFID, this book tries to reveal the opportunities opened by this revolutionary technology to anyone and everyone engaged in production, movement or sale of goods. It is equally relevant for organizations wishing to trace & track the movements of their materials and even processes. On the other hand, while adopting such disruptive and expensive technology, one needs to first understand and overcome the host of challenges and such other related issues to avoid frustration later. Thus, this book is of great value for the organizations which are considering adoption of RFID technology and more so for those who are on a constant look-out for a competitive advantage in their arena. In short, the book should serve as a guide to business managers for proactive deployment of RFID in their respective businesses.
