While it isn't a new technology, radio frequency identification (RFID) has recently become a hot topic among manufacturers, particularly consumer segment product companies. The technology was catapulted to the forefront by Wal-Mart's mandate requiring its top 100 suppliers to use RFID tags on cases and pallets of consumer goods shipped to its distribution centers and stores by January 2005. Today, many manufacturers are scrambling to implement RFID in order to comply with the demands that Wal-Mart has set, along with other retailers who have since followed. The value of RFID goes beyond simply meeting retailer demands, as the technology is delivering significant benefits throughout the value chain for companies across a wide sector of industries.
