  1 | Pa g e Effect on manufacturing  Need to ensure error-free, custom assembly  Need inventory of components for the various customization options  Critical Issues – Assembly process control – Inventory management – Supply chain integration – Customer insight  One solution: RFID  What is RFID?  RFID = Radio Frequency IDentification.  An ADC (Automated Data Collection) technology that:  uses radio-frequency waves to transfer data between a reader and a movable item to identify, categorize, track..  Is fast and does not require physical sight or contact between reader/scanner and the tagged item.  Performs the operation using low cost components.  Attempts to provide unique identification and backend integration that allows for wide range of applications.  Other ADC technologies: Bar codes, OCR
