The Reality of RFID
Thought Leadership
RFID and Consumers: Understanding Their Mindset
Evaluating market perception enables companies to leverage the technology’s full potential and gain return on their investment.
With potential supply-chain savings from Radio Frequency Identfication(RFID) estimated at $180 to $300 billion per year according to AMR research, understanding the competitive advantages and practicalities of RFID is becoming critical.
Standards Drive Adoption
RFID standards have developed quickly and have been adopted by leading organisations
responsible for major IT spending such Wal-Mart and the US Department of Defense. This ensures
that RFID will be a major technology wave for the coming decade. As standards
progress, costs diminish, and open system deployments rise, the market is rapidly
solidifying.
Capgemini is one of the early RFID pioneers. Since the 1990’s, Capgemini has
deployed RFID in several industries around the globe, is actively involved with
Electronic Product Code (EPC) standards and is currently driving several RFID
pilots. Capgemini was selected as one of the top five RFID vendors in the market
by IDC.
