ABSTRACT
In order to conduct effective RFID-integrated facility operations, not only must the RFID system be properly implemented, but the facility must also be properly laid out. Far too many organizations pay too little attention to effectively laying out their facilities. In some cases, organizations will simply adopt the facility layout used by previous tenants. In other cases, organizations have layouts because that is the way things have always been done. Both of these approaches are likely to result in less than optimal layouts. The subsequent implementation of RFID systems in less than optimal layouts can greatly limit the potential benets of this technology.
