How RFID Increases Shipment Accuracy

Thursday June 8^th

1:00pm – 1:45pm Central

Presented By

Tom O’Boyle – Principal RFID Solutions Architect – Barcodes Group

Nat Hillary – Solutions Engineer for Strategic Accounts, Impinj

Why RFID?

Shipments sent to the wrong location, missing items, or containing the wrong items cost time, money and erode customer trust.

Placed on points of transition, RFID technology can identify thousands of items per second, and is capable of achieving a read accuracy above 99% percent.

And it delivers powerful insights into traffic patterns and service level metrics to further optimize your operations.

Discover the Advantages of RFID for Your Organization:

• Automate tracking of shipments moving in and out of dock doors without direct line-of-sight, reducing the need for human intervention and manual scanning
• Read tags on pallets, cases, or items
• Alert teams when a shipment is incomplete, contains the wrong items, or is loaded on the wrong truck
• Experience repeatability and scalability with an easy installation process (no matter the size of your business)

That means RFID tags placed on individual items, pallets, or containers will be read accurately to ensure that the right goods are on the right truck – every time.
