Regulatory authorities are demanding stricter customer compliance, and customers are demanding real-time data for better decision making. At the same time, customer demand is becoming more erratic thus the need for enhanced supply chain coordination with an objective to enhance overall customer value. Radio Frequency Identification RFID, an enabler of supply chain visibility, has the potential to provide customers with large amounts of information at any point in the movement of goods through the supply chain. This technology complements the barcode technology. However, with the acceptance of RFID technology, several managerial and technical issues arise. The focus of this chapter is to thus discuss the relevance of RFID technology for enabling supply chain visibility and adoption related issues. © 2009, IGI Global. | Source Title: | Handbook of Research in Mobile Business, Second Edition: Technical, Methodological and Social Perspectives | URI: | http://scholarbank.nus.edu.sg/handle/10635/114893 | ISBN: | 9781605661568 | DOI: | 10.4018/978-1-60566-156-8.ch034 |
