THE POTENTIAL OF RADIOFREQUENCYIDENTIFICATION APPLICATION ON TEXTILE AND GARMENT INDUSTRY IN VIETNAM Nowadays, technology advances quickly so that firms are compelled to catch up with the latest technological developments. In order to protect their competitiveness, they should timely accomplished investments in technology. Ecommerce solutions proposed have drawn the attention of many companies to deploy. One of the technologies offering a solution is Radio Frequency Identification (RFID).
[...]... suffered the effects of a recession due to the stagnation of domestic demand and the increasing toughness of competition, since the liberalisation of international trade in textiles products has meant a considerable increase in imports of low-cost products made in developing countries The evolution of the markets has demanded a new business strategy more focused upon the differentiation that brings added... integrated firm, and, therefore, very interesting to examine how the technology of RFID has been applied in these companies and which are the current results of it Facing to such success deployment of apparel firms in the world, so, how are the real conditions of Vietnam garment industry? From there, we can evaluate the ability of RFID implementation in apparel manufacturing in Vietnam I Description... packed and shipped to the distribution center Therefore, the item level tagging is performed at a very early level in the chain and it reassures the continuous control of the product’s position and condition within it After the garments are tagged and packed, the shipment to the distribution center is performed The company’s transportation fleet is also RFID enabled, in order to control the quantity of. .. amounts of information including contents, product history, origin and destination points, order information and handling instructions RFID can track ‘pedigree’ information where the product is, 17 where it has been, who accepted it and at what stage It reduces shipping delays by increasing staging accuracy and ensuring the right shipment is on the right outbound truck RFID allows you to “certify” the. .. reducing the time and cost of travelers since the tag can be deciphered from a distance This application helps to keep good traffic flow and to identify traffic patterns using data mining techniques that can inform the administration or decision support systems 2.1.2 RFID in baggage handling management For the airline industry, getting passengers to their destinations on time and with their accompanying... Sensap, the outcome of the system's implementation has not been provided in numerical data by Staff Jeans, for reasons of confidentiality The different cost categories include the initial investment cost in the Distribution Center of the Staff Jeans, which consists of Hardware, Software, Planning and Installation costs, the implementation costs per store, the annual cost of support and personnel education... operating costs by reducing labor costs, claims and returns, thereby increasing operating income And working capital can be reduced by enabling reductions in inventory and lowering inventory write-offs from unsaleables and returns RFID minimizes human errors and time-consuming steps in the process, increases inventory accuracy and provides real-time information for managers to make accurate decisions... validation of sequence and components and speeds build times Customization requirements can be built into the system and validated immediately, eliminating costly reworks RFID can track the history of the production and finished goods, important information for shipping and possible recalls Secondly, for finished goods shipping out the back door, RFID tags on outgoing pallets and containers contain vast... be saved The production process becomes more efficient, and ultimately the quality of the product rises This, in turn, leads to an improvement in the profitability of the firm, and a rise in its goodwill The use of RFID makes the production process simple and efficient, and helps in avoiding wastage of time The same is the case with finished goods at a retail outlet The location of the merchandise can... visibility that RFID is offering enables the better management of inventory levels, and, thus, is helping the company towards inventory elimination Another very useful outcome of the use of RFID in Staff Jeans has been the automation of many supply chain and logistics processes, as already mentioned In particular, the picking and stocking routines within the central distribution center 31 . enabling technology for automated, contactless, wireless data collection. This is a technology that has been in use in different areas especially in the textile and garment industry where competition. RFID implementation. 4.3 Data collection Secondary data There are different data gathering procedures that the researcher uses for this term paper. In this study, the information gathered in this. huge. The advantage of this system lay in its simplicity and its non-dependence on unstable technology such as computers and power supply. This method as such retains its relevance when the workplace
