Course details

Today’s manufacturers must respond rapidly and effectively to challenges posed by high-mix low-volume production, shortened product lifecycles, increased demand variability, mass customisation, cost volatility and cutting, and low productivity. One emerging trend is the use of RFID technology to improve productivity. To achieve this, companies must ensure the competency of their workforce in innovating existing workflows using RFID technology. This involves studying production operation workflows and identifying business-improvement opportunities by deploying under-utilised capacity, by way of better use of assets, through RFID tracking. It also implies studying inventory operation workflows and identifying resource waste reduction avenues through the timely detection of aged materials or the incorrect use of resources using RFID tools. This project-based, hands-on training programme will allow participants to study their existing production workflows and identify opportunities to improving business productivity and efficiency with the implementation of RFID tools and technology.
