RFID

Why should you use RFID technology?


RFID is not a completely new technology. Since 1979, it has been used to track animals, rail cars and military supplies. With the expansion of Internet of Things (IoT), where RFID plays major role, it is expanding as well and it is used for parking, access control, apparel tracking, uniform tracking, computer and other asset tracking, manufacturing, supply chain management and many other application.

Previously, the majority of these applications have been closed systems in which all the data was utilized by a single organization. The major difference in the RFID requirements today is that companies are seeking to share RFID data among trading partners in their supply chains. Sharing data requires that RFID systems today be built on open standards. One of the main organizations developing standards for RFID is EPCglobal or GS1, who works closely with many industry leaders to create standards that will be clear, secure, usable and easy to implement.

Ok, so RFID has been around for a while. But why should I use it?
RFID technology provides a real-time actionable and detailed information about your business processes as well as status and movement of your inventory, assets, and personnel that you wouldn’t be able to get otherwise. RFID enables you to gain insight about your current business processes and helps you see how to best modify them to increase efficiency. Data collected using RFID plays a big role in a company’s business process improvement and management, which essentially increases ROI, profit and customer satisfaction.

New technology and change in business processes are not the only things that will make a successful implementation. It is also device integration and software development as ERP and other backend systems are not prepared to deal with raw data from an RFID reader and tags. RUFUtech has an expertise in developing software applications that integrate RFID and Auto-ID technology as well as existing and new business processes to increase benefits from the technology use. That said, with good planning, you will reap the many benefits that RFID technology offers. Ask us how we can help you!

5 Reasons to Outsource Your Software Development

How can you develop a software solution for your company if software development is not your actual business? Yes, you can hire a team of developers, through recruiters or by posting ads and since you don’t know that much about programming you can only hope, that they know what they are doing after you hire them. Then it’s up to you not only to pay them wages and benefits, but also manage them and your project, ensure testing and quality processes, while having to deliver a professional and well made application. That can quickly turn your project into a nightmare and a waste of time and money. This is why software development is best outsourced and here are 5 reasons why you should consider it.

1.   Cost Savings – Outsourced software development often costs 50 – 90% less offshore than in North America or Western Europe. The fact that you won’t need to make a large upfront investment, makes your development projects more feasible.
2.   Time Savings – You can start on your project almost immediately, as there is no need to look for, hire or train the employees.
3.   Easier hiring - Hiring offshore staff is much easier than hiring in-house employees because the outsourcing provider manages the human resources, payrolls and the actual operations on behalf of the clients served.
4.   Access to trained and talented developers – The outsourcing firm has done the work for you. They have advertised, interviewed, hired, trained and tried out programmers to ensure that they are ready to go and are able to deliver the best product for the client.
5.   Risk mitigation – You can limit risks by selecting an established outsourcing development company that has a great reputation, a high-quality project management, testing and QA system and a well developed processes for developing software applications.
