SimplyRFiD fixed the DoD RFID mandate 15 years ago with their Pro-Tags XTraveler's. In 2007, the RFID mandate was 138 pages of specifications reduced to a one-page picture guide. Today, the SGTIN mandate has bloated to 314 pages, and SimplyRFiD does it again, reducing it to a tagline: Peel-Stick-Ship.
Carl Brown, founder of SimplyRFiD and making inventory fun, hosts a weekly online roundtable where retail colleagues meet, learn, and contribute in a world class discussion on achieving inventory accuracy. The next roundtable is February 7 at noon, Eastern.
SimplyRFiD spent a year gathering data on the ROI for RFID in retail and has the numbers and process improvements that show retailers implementing Wave RFID gain a minimum of 9.7% revenue improvement. SimplyRFID will be in booth #4246 at the NRF Big Show to discuss how Wave RFID can improve retailers' top and bottom line.
SimplyRFiD's JT jewelry loop tag has been the standard for two years. The new JT-S loop jewelry RAIN RFID tag is 50% lower in price and 20% better performance using the latest NXP uCode9 chips. The JT-S is available for pre-order at 15c each for 1,000 pre-programmed (vs. 40c for the JT).
The latest generation of RAIN RFID tags from SimplyRFiD are less than 4 cents and work with the popular Wave RFID system. Low-cost RFID has replaced barcodes for leading companies. "Before RFID we didn't even try to enable a BOPIS (buy online, pickup in store) solution," said a top clothing retailer.
