Abstract:
Strategies for enhancing supply chain performance often require data sharing between supply chain partners to remove inefficiencies such as out-of-shelf situations, incorrect inventory levels, and incorrect demand and sales forecasts. Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) combined with the Electronic Product Code (EPC) makes it possible to use unique identifiers for each object. RFID furthermore allows the automation of collecting events and lowers costs for enhancing information granularity about an object traveling through the supply chain.
