“…RFID technology uses a few simple and inexpensive components, which in the past decade progressively gained importance in the traceability technological scenario, since it omitting the manual control, increasing versatility of operational contexts (e.g., being water-proof, antimagnetic, supporting a wide range of temperatures), versatility of logistic context (permitting a very different range of reading distances), long service life and miniaturization to a certain extent [6]. RFID architecture is composed by the following components [7](See Fig.…”

The paper discusses the possibility of combining RFID and Blockchain technology to more effectively prevent counterfeiting of products or raw materials, and to solve problems related to production, logistics and storage. Linking these technologies can lead to better planning by increasing the transparency and traceability of industrial or logistical processes or such as efficient detection of critical chain sites. AbstraktPříspěvek se zabývá možností kombinace technologií RFID a Blockchain pro účinnější zabránění padělání výrobků či surovin a řešení problémů spojených s výrobou, logistikou a skladováním. Spojení těchto technologií může vést k lepšímu plánování díky vyšší transparentnosti a sledovatelnosti průmyslových nebo logistických procesů, nebo například k efektivnímu zjišťování kritických míst řetězce.

“…However, the research only analyzed the problem from the retailer's perspective, and focused on the retailer's incentive for RFID adoption. It has been pointed out that RFID should be implemented in the entire supply chain to improve the supply chain performance [46]. On the other hand, one of the major barriers for RFID implementation in a supply chain is the free-rider problem, which is the phenomenon where the retailer can take advantage of RFID without bearing any cost once RFID tags are attached to the products by the upstream supplier.…”

“…For example, in 2005, Wal-Mart required its top 100 suppliers to tag all their pallets and cases and to bear the variable tag cost. RFID implementation also leads to large gains for the suppliers, boosts a long term partner relationship with the retailer, provides timely and accurate information, and helps to speed up the operational processes [46].…”

Abstract:Misplaced inventory is prevalent in retail stores and may lead to the overall poor performance of the supply chain. We explore the impact of misplaced inventory on a two-level supply chain, which consists of a risk-neutral supplier and a risk-averse retailer. The supplier decides the wholesale price to maximize her profit, whereas the retailer decides the order quantity to maximize his utility. Under the Conditional Value-at-Risk (CVaR) criterion, we formulate the problem as a Stackelberg game model and obtain the equilibrium solutions in three cases: (i) information asymmetry about inventory errors exists; (ii) the retailer shares information about inventory errors with the supplier; and (iii) in order to reduce misplaced inventory, the supply chain deploys Radio-Frequency Identification (RFID) technology. The benefits of information sharing and RFID implementation are explored. A revenue and cost sharing contract is proposed to coordinate the supply chain and to allocate the cost savings from RFID implementation among supply chain participants. Finally, we provide managerial insights for risk-averse decision makers that are considering investing in the RFID technology.

“…For example, thanks to the performance achieved by the new auto-id technologies, such as radio frequency identification (Sarac, Absi & Dauzère-Pérès, 2010), it is possible to trace and track drugs in order to obtain significantly improvement in the visibility and security of the healthcare supply chain (Koh, Schuster, Chackrabarti & Bellman, 2003;Bevilacqua, Ciarapica, Mazzuto & Paciarotti, 2013). In addition to this, Harrison and Tatsuya (2006) proposed the use of electronic pedigrees, mass serialisation and authentication of the drug to combat counterfeit drug problems.…”

Abstract:Purpose: This work aims at providing insights to optimise healthcare logistic of the drug management, in order to deal with the healthcare expenditure cut. In this paper the effects of different drug supply chain configurations, on the resulting average stock, service level and Bullwhip effect, of the studied supply chain, is quantitatively assessed. Findings: The output of this paper provides useful insights and suggestions to optimize the healthcare logistic and drug supply chain. According to the developed DoE analysis, it can be stated that the introduction of transshipment policies provides important improvement in terms of service and stock levels. To reduce the Bullwhip effect, which results in a service level decreasing, and in a managing stock costs increasing, it is worth to adopt an EOQ re-order policy. Practical implications:This research gives practical recommendations to the studied system, in order to reduce costs and maintain a very satisfactory service level.Originality/value: This paper fulfils an identified need to study which combination of transshipment policies, re-order/inventory management policies and required service levels, can be the best one to reduce costs and maintain a very satisfactory service level, in the specific logistic system.
