Welcome to WCCN Publishing, a supporter of the RFID Association Australia (RFIDAA).

 

Part of the proceeds of RFIDAA-referred orders to WCCN publications will be donated to RFIDAA for use in its work of fostering the proper and healthy deployment of RFID for enterprise object tacking systems.

 

Arguably, there is no greater proponent for the use of RFID in the enterprise than WCCN. Properly deployed, RFID is one of a small set of enablers that will usher in a level of exceptional economic prosperity that will be truly global in nature, and in the process RFID will totally redefine what is meant by “The Supply Chain”.

 

Unfortunately, RFID has gotten off to a poor start, or more accurately, deployment of RFID has commenced prematurely. But, it accomplishes little to cry over the spilling of pre-Gen2 reliability-challenged chips, and the past deployment of  architecturally-impoverished RFID infrastructures.

 

The lesson learned is that mandate compliance  may be a necessary cost of doing business for some, but such mandates have created a round of  ROI-less false starts, and  RFID deployment practices that need to be corrected.

 

Mandates aside, the key to accruing the benefits, and even in making the justification for deploying RFID, is in looking at RFID holistically as an element of an enterprise’s automation system. The enterprise’s architectural approach should be, first and foremost, in compliance with the enterprise’s fundamental systems architectural infrastructure.

 

And in that context, the RFID infrastructure that is deployed should provide every bit of real-time tracking, on an individual item basis, as  Wi-Fi integrated laser scanning  provided on a bulk item basis. In this context, tracking objects only occasionally as they pass a Portal Reader, is a step backwards. WCCN is insistent that what is required is Full-Time RFID tracking, employing architectures such as the ones covered in The WCCN Letter.     

 

Beyond the ability to migrate to individual item tracking, RFID has the promise to drastically minimize the level of human resources required in routine daily operation of an enterprise. A benefit with incredible bottom line impact.

 

Finally, RFID is essential to the e-business paradigm shift in the way business is conducted among supply chain partners. Thus, RFID is key to global economic prosperity that e-business practices promise in this networked world.

 

It is with this perspective that WCCN covers RFID for Interactive Enterprise Automation Systems in The WCCN Letter.
