Content: Modern supply chains often involve highly complex, international networks of internal and external resources, all working to manage the movement and storage of goods as they move from factory to warehouse to retail outlet or customer location. The complexity of today’s supply chains makes logistics a critical component of successful supply chain management.
Multiple technologies deliver high accuracy and low transaction costs, allowing organizations to balance cost and accuracy and move quickly to avoid problems. When the right technology is used in the right situation, the result is increased visibility, improved efficiency, reduced losses, and enhanced customer service.
To help logistics system designers find the right fit for their use case, this presentation will look at the different technologies used to identify and track items and discuss the suitability of each for different operating environments.
Two technologies stand out: RAIN RFID and SubGHz.
