According to ABI Research, the supply chain isn’t the only area in which companies are using RFID. The technology is also being applied to asset management, security access control and specialized inventory management, said Michael Liard, an analyst at ABI.
Even though companies are investigating RFID for specific vertical and other uses, Liard stressed that the major driver behind the technology’s adoption is remains compliance with Wal-Mart and DOD mandates. The largest growth area for RFID will continue to be applications that track pallets and cases, he said.
