Supply chain management in International logistics – RFID applications
The evolution of international transport is linked to the requirement of its customers and their needs. Modern logistics require compliance with a demand-based planning, hence the current management disciplines are grouped around the supply chain management (SCM) and seek to optimize the resources available to the transport, ie., ordering of supplies, time, cost and information. Production needs condition the next supplies the place of consumption, and the sequence or order of delivery. Information systems have played a key role in responding to these requirements and the Electronic data Interchange (EDI) has provided the necessary technologies to do so. Nevertheless, despite the extent of EDI systems that normalize the content of messages required for synchronization between systems, we encounter the difficulty of consolidating information between customers and suppliers with different software.
