    Change Request: Process Improvement


    Description:

    Currently, the materiel movement processes with DPAS Warehouse do not support the identification of assets, container and locations utilizing passive RFID (pRFID) technologies. DPAS also does not support unique pRFID tag ids for bulk items in all modules as it should.


    Recommended:

    Provide the ability to identify and select assets and containers, for inventory relocation functions, using pRFID scanning technology.


    Mission Critical:

    Linear (barcode), 2D (data matrix) and Optical Character Recognition (OCR) scanning technologies require a direct line of sight in order to read the identification markings.  RFID allows for the detection of one or more tags within an adjustable vicinity or read range without having to physically touch or move the asset or container.  In most cases, RFID formats can determine the type of asset identified - location, container or asset. 


    Benefits:

    Accuracy, efficiency and time savings.  Provide consistently throughout the DPAS processes and conform to pRFID industry standard.


    Frequency: Daily


    Users:

    All warehouse, inventory managers can benefit from using this functionality.
