How to choose the correct RFID solution
It has always been, and always will be a great adage to say that using the ‘Right Tool for the Right Job’ is the key to a successful solution. The saying itself is reported to have been popularised from a memorable advertising slogan from as early as 1907 – clearly there is always truth in a story that lasts!
It seems that in RFIDdirect’s many years of scoping and talking to customers about implementing RFID systems, it is sometimes problematic to get the basics correct – the ‘right’ tools in place. RFIDdirect are great believers in absolutely getting this core element right first – that even the simplest solution will only deliver satisfactory results if the all the RFID components are the most process-appropriate. Chief advice being take expert advice, understand your process and never focus on price or a tag-first approach – the RFID tag is only present to ‘unlock’ the data – when sold ‘alone’ customers are generally disappointed and RFID technology is so often misunderstood or misjudged.
‘Right tool for the right job’
Having a thorough understanding of RFID products helps remove any uncertainty about the product or the deployment of RFID in the first place. Initial Enthusiasm about a product by a potential client can be hard to modify – even frustrating – if it is not be the best solution. Then, only persistent, (gentle) persuasion to develop the business case and ROI have to be the honest way forward. The easiest way to become enthusiastic is to truly believe in choosing the right type of RFID system from the onset.
