Press Release Summary = Toronto, ON, Nov, 2006 - There are many applications for how
RFID systems help manufacturers and warehouse operations; these applications can be
as unique as the enterprise they help. However, there are some common areas in these
industries related to their logistics of getting the finished product to the
customer or to another distribution center. Bottlenecking of the goods at the
shipping door has implications on the costs to ship goods, lowers revenues when
there are fewer shipped goods to bill and puts a drag on productivity gains you have
made in other areas of the enterprise.



Press Release Body = Toronto, ON, Nov, 2006 - There are many applications for how
RFID systems help manufacturers and warehouse operations; these applications can be
as unique as the enterprise they help. However, there are some common areas in these
industries related to their logistics of getting the finished product to the
customer or to another distribution center. Bottlenecking of the goods at the
shipping door has implications on the costs to ship goods, lowers revenues when
there are fewer shipped goods to bill and puts a drag on productivity gains you have
made in other areas of the enterprise.

As product moves onto pallets, cases, boxes or whatever the means of preparing it
for shipment, an RFID tag is read that is attached to the pallet, as an example.
With the appropriate applications software, then all relevant data is transposed
onto the tag, the inventory of product, which customer it is for, delivery
information, the method of transportation, etc.

Once that pallet passes through a specific point at a shipping dock, then the tag is
read and the contents of the data loaded earlier gets processed into the enterprise
software. This in turn will generate invoices, initiate courier tracking, adjusts
inventories, initiates material purchases to name just some of the impact RFID can
have for your day-to-day business. Gone too are many of the headaches associated
with bottlenecks in the shipping process such as verifying shipments against the
bill-o-lading while drivers queue up for their pick-ups, the potential for human
error in getting the wrong product on the wrong truck.

The ability to ship manufactured or warehoused goods efficiently and with less cost
is what RFID technology can deliver to your business. To learn more, please contact
