The Benefits Of Tracking Assets With RFID
* Ensure all assets are checked in or out with proper documentation
* Know where to locate assets at all times.
* Keep track of the progress of assets throughout major processes.

When an RFID system is properly installed within a facility, the possibilities are endless – keeping track of timelines, finding assets with ease, and keeping accurate shipping and receiving records, just to name a few.

The ability of an RFID based system to keep an accurate history of where assets have been and where they are headed, is critical in certain industries. Some companies document an asset’s history to limit the amount of liability the company has for each asset. Others track each asset and, by knowing when and where everything is, are better able to plan and forecast for shipments, manufacturing, and a more efficient use of resources.

If shipping and receiving is identified as a point where assets are commonly lost, adding an RFID system to trucks and dock doors can help to pinpoint where the issues reside. Adding an RFID system to a truck responsible for transfers can supply a decisive history report in case the receiver losses the asset and claims it was not delivered.
