Mobile - Wireless Communications White Papers

VeriSign Wireless Calling Name (WCNAM) Delivery Service

Overview Over the last few months many market-leading enterprises have been asked by customers to add Radio Frequency IDentification (RFID) to their distribution operations. These same companies have searched for the Return On Investment or "ROI" of RFID to justify the cost of meeting customer requirements. The companies that will successfully quantify the impact of RFID will do so by taking a holistic approach. The focus must be on the value of supply chain visibility that is enabled by RFID as part of an overall process and technology improvement. To attain the greatest benefits from the evolution in the supply chain, companies must look beyond a limited view of ROI for RFID to the promising value of visibility.
