Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) and Near Field Communication (NFC) are mature technologies that have already found their way into many aspects of everyday life. RFID brings a broad range of benefits to the manufacturing process including: enabling of process automation, providing better visibility into manufacturing flow, supporting more efficient operations, increasing security, delivering greater accuracy, and providing added value, all of which give rise to superior productivity at reduced capital and labor costs while increasing revenue.

Forward-thinking manufacturers not only benefit internally from inclusion of RFID, but also set themselves apart from competitors by offering an innovation that clients down the supply chain can use to their advantage.
