Abstract
Automated identification is a basic element for implementing efficient
positioning, identification and status & authenticity systems in the supply
chains. RFID allows to identify objects automatically without visual contact
at several meters reading range. By improving the visibility in the supply
chain, the different actors involved can improve the efficiency of their
processes and lower operational costs. RFID is an enabling actor for
visibility, but requires the involvement of all participants in the supply
chain. This paper will discuss how visibility throughout the supply chain can
be achieved: how to agree on common processes and the information exchanged.
Practical examples are given.
