RFID Business Case Based on Six Sigma Methodology and Discrete Event Simulation
Requirements for manufacturing control evolve from traditional centralized approaches where decision making is hierarchically broadcasted to more complex distributed control architectures. The changes outlined above have involved autonomous entities and processes thanks to RFID technology. However, the lack of a complete and an unified RFID standard and the high cost of RFID infrastructure has urged many companies to hesitate in adopting the RFID systems. In this way, numerous efforts are being done to bridge this gap. However, the pertinence of a RFID implementation project remains too difficult to justify. In this paper, we propose a driven project management approach based on six-sigma method and discrete event simulation to identify the opportunities coming from RFID technology, to evaluate the benefits, the feasibility and to define the strategy of the project and finally to do the technical recommendations. This approach is illustrated by using an industrial case study from Trane Company.
