Overview: The LICON Logistics consortium of companies came together to learn how Radio Frequency IDentification (RFID) could streamline the tracking of a shipment of high-speed printers in the world's first field test of that technology in a transatlantic supply chain. If successful, the project will prove the superior benefits of RFID versus bar code technology in the areas of cost, security, flexibility, and accuracy and timeliness of tracking information. The project also will prove the benefits of the technology used for managing the RFID tags and integrating with the many systems that process the tracking information along the supply chain. That technology includes the Microsoft .NET Framework and other Microsoft products.
