Abstract: Radio frequency identification (RFID) technology is becoming more embedded in the supply chain. Tracking goods in the work place has been identified as one area where production can be improved. In fact, in almost all non-'green field' modern manufacturing facilities, there are work flow process systems that can be improved to reduce the overall work load and increase the total work throughput. This paper outlines a 'real life' manufacturing facility where RFID was integrated to help streamline work flow.
