Abstract
Drawing from the results of IDC's European Vertical Market Survey, this study
focuses on RFID adoption in retail/wholesale, manufacturing, and
transportation/logistics among companies with more than 20 employees.
Areas of investigation include:
- Percentage of companies piloting, implementing, or planning to implement RFID
- Job functions influencing the RFID process
- IT areas of RFID projects requiring investment
- Key areas of focus in implementing RFID
- Key business processes affected by RFID
- Expected benefits of RFID
- Reasons not to adopt RFID
Results are given for total Western Europe and for the discrete manufacturing,
process manufacturing, retail/wholesale, and transportation/logistics verticals.
"RFID is still in its early stages. However, some 17.6% of companies in
manufacturing, retail/wholesale, and logistics are piloting/implementing RFID
projects and more are to come, not only in these sectors, but also in several
other industries," said Giuliana Folco, research director, IDC European
Vertical Markets.
