RFID Masterclass in March
In March GS1 New Zealand with the support of The New Zealand RFID Pathfinder Group will run the “RFID Masterclass”.
This workshop is an intensive one-day, ‘hands-on’ session held in Auckland, Wellington and Christchurch.

Overall, this workshop will focus on business processes that are best enabled by EPC/RFID such as traceability and improved inventory accuracy. Using New Zealand case studies and international examples you will see how companies derive competitive advantages today by using the technology.

The workshop has been designed for RFID beginners and those more advanced in RFID. It will interest a wide range of disciplines from business and finance executives, IT and packaging professionals, merchandisers and marketers to those involved in the operational aspects of the business.
This one day workshop will give you a clear understanding of:

• the fundamentals of the technology and its applications

• need-to-know details at a practical level – you will have first-hand experience with the hardware and software and learn, for example, why tag placement and orientation on products is critical for performance

• relevant global standards, particularly Generation 2 – you will learn, for example, why Gen2 has such a positive impact on read performance, on global inter-operability between tags and readers, and on EPC equipment prices

• the key features of the EPC Network and how it enables real-time supply chain visibility – you will learn, in particular, about the EPC Information Service (EPCIS) and how RFID read events can be linked to your existing IT systems to make business operations more efficient.
