Where speed and control are critical, radio frequency identification (RFID) is a hot technology solution. “Many returns come back to Best Buy minus their cartons. We add a new RFID tag at the point of return,” Jordan explains. “For us, the real value is having a system to track a product while it is under our control. If we can scan an item's license plate, that improves our accuracy.”

“RFID will completely change the deal,”Archlord gold insists Dale Rogers, professor of supply chain management with the University of Nevada, Reno and chairman of the Reverse Logistics Executive Council. “Once there are RFID chips on everything, companies can know where the returned item was purchased, when and where it was manufactured, and the serial number.”

“Third parties and software companies are boosting their investment in returns management systems as they deal with RFID.world of warcraft gold Everyone is scrambling to figure out how to make RFID work. It gives more capability, but we need to know what we want to do,” adds Rogers (see “Keeping it simple” on p. 26 for a discussion of smart labels).

The first challenge for many companies is knowing their actual return rate and whether or not it's acceptable.maple story mesos The Warehousing Education Research Council commissioned James Stock, professor of marketing and logistics with University of South Florida, to study the numbers.

“People don't know what's coming back nor what recovery rate to expect.2moons dil In our study, companies doing really well are seeing 80% to 90% recovery rates. Average companies realize rates around 60%. For companies doing poorly, 40% is the norm,” says Stock.

Retail powerhouses like Wal-Mart, Target, Tesco, and Metro now insist that their business partners get on board with radio frequency identification (RFID). Although this fact alone suggests that a large number of suppliers will soon be RFID-savvy, it's also becoming apparent that RFID is making its own case. According to a recent Accenture survey, 47 percent of North American manufacturing executives anticipate getting a high return on their RFID investments.
Wow power leveling,
Admittedly,Wow power leveling survey respondents are focusing primarily on short-term benefits: 48 percent of respondents cited improved track-and-trace of shipment lots as a key benefit; 45 percent cited improved recall management; and 41 percent cited better shipping and receiving. Fewer respondents said they are emphasizing longer-term, planning-related benefits such as less inventory and working capital, improved revenue through reduction of out-of-stocks, and reduced expediting costs.

Although companies may still be unclear about the long-term advantages,aion kinah RFID appears to have turned a corner. With more companies developing collaborative relationships, RFID is an excellent way to enhance the following:
Finished-goods inventory visibility: Hiking performance levels in shipping and receiving, labor productivity, order accuracy, and returns processing.
Production visibility: Improving accuracy of raw material receipts, work-in-process inventory management, and receiving-labor productivity.

Asset visibility: Designer Glasses Raising asset utilization through better tracking of vehicles, reusable containers, and other high-value assets.
Another reason for RFID's ascension is its scope. Although many of them are being forced to adopt this technology, RFID-related benefits to consumer goods manufacturers are real, with potential for improving the accuracy of supply chain processes such as forecasting for demand planning.

However,cheap aion kinah RFID also will likely ratchet up retailers' operating performance by making it possible to tag merchandise at various levels, automate key distribution center processes, and reduce delivery lead times. Freight companies are other potential beneficiaries: They could save millions by identifying inefficiencies in delivery operations and by automatically tracking assets.

And finally,maple story mesos consider the pharmaceutical industry, where Electronic Product Codes (EPCs) that are integrated across the supply chain have the potential to curtail counterfeiting, streamline reverse logistics, and reduce out-of-stocks and returns. Companies could save up to 5 percent from increased labor productivity and reduced shrinkage, and reduce working and fixed capital from 5 percent to 30 percent—cabal alz the result of optimized inventory levels and superior asset utilization.
