Using Technology to Improve Distribution & Logisitcs for Global Supply Chains Grant uri icon

abstract

  • We propose to add radio frequency identification (RFID) capabilities and image scanning technologies to the IDIS Simulation Lab. Through these technologies, we will support our mission by providing new challenges for our students to merge state of the art automatic identification and data capture (AIDC) technology with ERP software to achieve the a seamless flow of information similar to the way P&G and other companies engaged in manufacturing, distribution, and supply of products are performing their supply chain processes.
