The Biography Network: Royal Philips Electronics announced that its semiconductor department successfully deployed wireless RFI (RFID) technology for its Asian supply chain, making it the first manufacturer of the semiconductor industry. Philips Semiconductor is the world's leading non-contact chip manufacturer with integrated circuit (IC)
Sales around the world exceeds 1 billion. The process of successfully launched the close collaboration with the IBM of Philips RFID IC, fully demonstrating how RFID technology quickly integrates with existing systems and operational models, thereby increasing productivity and work efficiency.
Philips' RFID projects in Asia include labels and tracking devices within the wafer box and packaging carton to monitor the manufacturer of Kaohsiung, Kaohsiung, and the goods between Hong Kong's Asia-Pacific distribution center. The successful implementation of the project improved the business process of production and distribution supply chain, thereby increasing the inventory turnover rate, shortening the time interval from deciding to produce to actual production, and improving the reliability and warehousing efficiency of delivery, and greatly improved Customer service.
Mathieu Clerkx, Chief Information Officer and Advanced Vice President, Philips Semiconductor Supply Chain, said: "Global manufacturers and dealers are looking forward to mature and effective RFID applications. Philips decided to deploy RFID, because the technology can be us Supply chain management brings a positive business model, and also fulfilled Philips' continuous investment advanced technology, improve the commitment of overall supply chain operations. "
Professor Li Yifa, the supply chain management field - Professor Li Weijiang, Stanford University, USA, said: "I have studied some projects with RFID solutions. It is clear that Philips is the industry leading innovator. Compared to other RFID projects, the size of the Philips project Leading. The entire industry is looking for a successful example to verify that RFID meets its complex business environment and business coverage requirements, Philips's project will will be the best reference case. "
Philips is considering deploying RFID solutions worldwide through its semiconductor sectors, including five semiconductor manufacturers and three distribution centers located in Asia Pacific, Europe and the United States. The company also plans to assist customers with RFID technology to integrate with their supply chain management process.
IBM Global RFID Supervisor Faye Holland said: "The project is the first large-scale RFID deployment on the global semiconductor production supply chain, which will become a baseline for RFID applications. Philips is unheeditive to introduce this technology into its supply chain, and successfully transformed The business process shows the unparalleled business value brought about business and technology. Philips leading RFID technology combined with IBM's RFID WebSphere middleware, integrated service and transformation capabilities, making the project first become the world's RFID One of the cases of scale applications. "
In addition to IBM is responsible for providing consulting and overall system integration, other industry leaders also participate in, Smartag and Tagsys will provide labels, tagsys will provide readers, Zebra will provide barcode printers.
