A: AIDC Solutions uses a series of steps to help organizations implement their Auto-ID solution: Assess the business issues. AIDC Solutions can be introduced to the organization to help understand the current business processes and the desires of the management of the organization. With that information, AIDC Solutions can map a plan of process and technological improvements that help meet the objectives of management and provide a concise return on investment for the initiatives. Consult on the solution. Given the rich history of process improvements made by AIDC Solutions for its customer base, the possibility of a pre-packaged solution is high. AIDC Solutions has packaged these process improvement applications into it’s Now! suite of products, built on AIDC Solutions’ open and configurable platform. However, certain improvements may need more of a service-based solution. AIDC Solutions has a highly configurable set of tools for quickly building a prototype of the solution and consulting with the organization for its “fitness” to the task. All of the AIDC Solutions solutions promote the patented integration methodology to ensure existing infrastructure and applications are leveraged. Implement the solution. Using experienced service professionals and product educators, AIDC Solutions can quickly implement the solution into a test environment for end-user testing and configuration. AIDC Solutions provides skilled project management for every phase of the project, from assessment to go-live, as well as educators with real-world experience in the intricate processes found within the industrial sector. Go-live and maintenance support. The return on investment only starts once the solution is implemented into production. Once the solution is ready for deployment, support from AIDC Solutions does not stop. We will ensure that our customers meet their objectives
A: Auto-ID covers a number of different technologies that enable software systems to automatically identify an item, usually by reading data from it. Auto-ID takes shape in a number of mature technologies like bar codes, magnetic stripe, smart card, etc. as well as emerging technology trends like RFID. There are significant advantages and disadvantages to each type of Auto-ID technology. In the majority of AIDC Solutions applications, tracking is best achieved using one of two technologies - bar codes or RFID. AIDC Solutions utilizes an Auto-ID development platform to allow users the freedom to build intent-based Auto-ID solutions (involving people) and pervasive Auto-ID solutions using the same technology set.
Q: Can AIDC Solutions help me with my RFID initiatives? A: YES! AIDC Solutions is a solutions provider member of GS1 UK, the AIDC European Centre of Excellence and AIM UK.
