RFID is coming to logistics, but what is the real impact on distribution systems? How must Warehouse Management System (WMS) capabilities and architectures adapt to use RFID effectively - or maybe at all! You'll learn all this and more in this informative Supply Chain Videocast™, from Supply Chain Digest and the Supply Chain Television Channel. We'll present essential information for understanding how RFID will impact your distribution systems, and how to evaluate technology providers.

To fully RFID-enable a WMS, it takes a lot more than just adding another item ID field to the item master. We'll show you just what it means, and where DC processing could be headed.

The event features several world-class experts in how RFID will be used in logistics technologies!

This broadcast is perfect for you if:

• Interested in understanding how RFID will change warehouse operations and the capabilities of Warehouse Management Systems
• Recognize there must be more benefit in Logistics for companies to get ROI out of RFID-compliance mandates
• Evaluating new WMS technology, and interested in knowing how differences in system architecture can impact the ability to truly support RFID.

How WMS capabilities and underlying technology must evolve to maximize RFID potential Why RFID will drive the need for truly "event-driven" architectures The differences between a "RFID light" and fully RFID-enabled WMS The current state of critical RFID reader hardware, such as vehicle readers, and how that impacts RFID-based WMS deployment The true impact of RFID on workflow and information flow in the DC
