Abstract: The advent of automated identification and data capture technologies has resulted in the ability to enhance the quality of product information, that is, available to make decisions along the product lifecycle. One of the major impact areas of such a capability is in improving the effectiveness of decisions made during end-of-life product recovery. In this paper, we review some of the key technologies and systems that can be used for managing product information, and compare the capabilities of these technologies from an information quality perspective. We find that radio frequency identification seems to be ideally placed to satisfy most of the requirements posed by product recovery decision making.
