Frequency identification (RFID) is an enabling technology that promises to create value through greater visibility in supply chain notworks, higher procl uct velocity, more efficient inventory reduced labor cost, and reduced human error. However, it not clear if these objectives can be fully achieved due to high tag costs and uncertain Return-Of-lnvestmen ROI. We introduce the key and concepts of RFID applications and identify key issues when in implementing RFID in supply chain networks. We suggest an RFID integration model that allows for degrees
