Effective warehouse management relies on the ability of management to accurately manage and control the quantity, location, allocation replenishment and movement of inventory within and between multiple warehouses. All decisions made relating to these activities are based on availability and accuracy of information and it is therefore critical that the data is derived from a reliable source. The ability of management to respond pro-actively and quickly to any given situation determines the level of operational efficiency and effectiveness.

ULR RFID is the ONLY technology, which enables REAL-TIME, accurate and dynamically updated data. By tagging inventory items or containers, information about location, quantity and movement of those items is available at all times. RFID tagging also eliminates the possibility of human error; no more incorrect keying in of information or neglecting to account for inventory received or dispatched.

Inventory replenishment becomes more effective due to the fact that replenishment decisions are based on accurate information. Order-fulfilment is improved by knowing exactly what is available-to-promise. The process of picking and packing is greatly improved through knowing the exact location of inventory items within the warehouse, even when misplaced. Thus delivery lead-times are reduced and a high level of customer-satisfaction is maintained. It is easy to see how ULR RFID can be used to achieve the highest level of productivity and a smooth flow of processes in every operation of warehouse management.
