Presentation Summary

This session will present examples of Manufacturers who have implemented RFID, WiFi, and sensor based Work-In-Process visibility infrastructure to provide real-time visibility on work orders, people, parts and assets internally but also across the supply chain to their customers and suppliers.
 
The use of RFID technology enables features such as:
  • Contact-less Data Entry
  • Automatic Work-Order Monitoring
  • Proactive shop floor notifications
  • Real-time Estimated Time to Completion (ETC) triggers
 
The benefits gained by these manufacturers include:
  • Increase in yield
  • Reduction in safety stock
  • Improvement in on-time delivery
  • Fewer incidents in theft
