RFID for Gate PassRFID for Gate Pass

• Gate Pass– Overhead devices cause tags

to transmit at exit and entry points, providing real time portal visibility

• Vehicle Location– Tag on Vehicle Enables

Continuous Location Reporting

• Remote Site Visibility– Vehicle presence at remote

sites is automatically captured and forwarded to a central system

RFID Challenges ?RFID Challenges ?

Recognizing 5 Main Phases of Technology

• Making the technology work; RFID is currently in the phase of initial deployment

• Making it manageable; this is when you begin to derive significant business benefits from RFID

• Making it essential; RFID will move from useful to “must-have” in supply chain operations based on proven value

• Making it ubiquitous; RFID appears everywhere within the organization

• Making it transparent; RFID is fully accepted as a technology and no longer noticed
