Description
Learn how Hewlett-Packard (HP) has used radio frequency identification (RFID) tagging to achieve near-perfect order fulfillment and increased efficiency. Marcelo Pandini, responsible for RFID execution at HP, shares the applied methodology and results of its ongoing, item-level, RFID tagging pilot tests at a pioneer implementation site in Sao Paolo, Brazil. See the benefits of item-level tagging versus traditional box and pallet-tagging. Discuss future applications and implications in the United States and around the world, including regulations and security concerns.
