The following section
includes several third-party case studies which demonstrate the
usefulness and effectiveness of RFID technology. Contact us for more

Sainsbury's Supermarkets
- Tagging for Security and Logistics
Sainsbury's must be one of the best known names in UK commerce. The
logistics system that operates behind its stores moves over 700,000,000
cases of goods each year, 150,000,000 of which are in returnable
crates. In addition, the increase in counterfeit goods, coupled with
the store's move towards selling higher value items such as electrical
goods make it important for Sainsbury's to know that the goods that it
is delivering are exactly what they claim to be.

Leveraging
RFID Within the U.S. Department of Defence
The U.S. Department
of Defence is no stranger to the use of automatic identification
technologies, or AIT. First barcodes, and more recently radio frequency
identification (RFID) technologies, have been in service for many
years, helping DoD streamline data capture and improve in-transit
visibility of military assets across the globe.

How RFID Improves The
Order-To-Cash Process
Without focusing RFID efforts on specific business processes, RFID
adopters will fail to capture benefits and determine a manageable
deployment road map. Forrester broke down a common process,
order-to-cash, to uncover when RFID data significantly improves the
process — and when existing technologies do an adequate job. The
clearest beneficiaries? Order capture, shipping, billing, and payment
receipt. But incremental improvements are limited for order routing and
fulfilment. By addressing two basic questions, RFID adopters can
perform similar analysis on a multitude of business processes.

Asset
Management Solution Based on RFID
Based on recent
trends such as those relating to the enhancement of their information
security systems, organizations are increasingly recognizing a need for
asset management measures. For example, a rise in the awareness of
legal compliance issues backed by the need for social contributions and
a review of the management and usage of assets aiming at improvements
to jobs and assets. These issues are currently tending to become more
complicated then even. Therefore, NEC has been developing solutions
that allow organizational assets to be managed precisely and
efficiently.
