anagement issues in RFID applications
In supply chain applications, RFID adoption efforts were initially limited to the case/pallet level and were used for improving backroom inventory-management practices. RFID uses are being extended to other areas. A recent study by Eurostat (the statistical of?ce of the EU) published in their newsletter(accessed through RFID news (2010)) showed that only 3% of the EU companies used RFID technology. The majority of the use was for Personal Id and access control (56%), then supply chain and inventory tracking (29%), motorway tolls (25%), theft control (24%), production control (21%) and asset management (15%). With further development of RFID technology, more attention is being paid to item level RFID usage. Several management issues have consequently arisen. These include RFID investment return expectations, business value, adoption process and people’s attitude, and bene?t and risk to the organizations. We carried out a literature survey to identify the research in each of the management issues. These are shown below.
