Abstract:
The goal of the pilot project was not to see whether RFID tags on pallets and cases could be read automatically (although
one should not assume that it is easy to achieve), but rather to develop or improve the systems and business processes needed
to sustain higher levels of efficiency and productivity. (...)

There are some indications that the main burden for RFID compliance will fall on suppliers, and not on retailers. Thus, these
companies should start evaluating RFID technology soon as to avoid paying exorbitant compliance costs, in the nick of time
