Abstract:

This project is a trial RFID Supply Chain Optimization pilot for the purpose of determining the optimal method to enhance supply chain capability and responsiveness by implementing RFID processes along with LeanSix Sigma and e-commerce that is intended to be deployed into small and medium manufacturing and supply chain facilities. A key goal of this program is not only to comply with DOD shipping mandates, but also implement RFID solutions that will provide enhanced product visibility and reduced cost.
