FREMONT, CA. - Beta testing is now underway for the deployment of RFID labeling in all DCL facilities. DCL's RFID initiative is driven by the supply chain requirements of major retailers such as Best Buy and Wal-Mart as they move to include RFID in all the products sold in their outlets. Cecil Flentge, Customer Service Manager, noted that, "The differing standards at these retailers have slowed broad adoption of a single standard. This has manufacturers questioning which standard to include in each package." Flentge also stated, "However, we are still prepared to move forward with the application of the RFID tag. Different standards outlined by various major retailers will make manufacturing more complex. Each product will need to include the appropriate technology for each retailer's requirements."
DCL clients are encouraged to check with their retail
channel partners and to let their DCL Account Manager know of future RFID requirements.
DCL continues to address advances in supply chain management as verified by the
company's commitment to this newest of technologies for retail product distribution.
