RFID The Bear FactsWhat You Need to Know to Jump-Start Item-Level RFID Implementation.

By Zander Livingston, CEO

If item-level RFID looks like a 1,000 pound, snarly bear to you, relax…..

Let Truecount show you how to easily harness the power of RFID to solve your toughest business challenges relating to inventory. With Truecount RFID, you can:

Increase VisibilityRemove DistortionMinimize Shrinkage

Item-level RFID gives you visibility into your business operations and inventory like never before, delivering up to 99+% accuracy for what is really happening with your merchandise and your processes.It’s like a truth serum for retail!

Are you ready for the truth?Yes? Then let’s take a look at what

item-level RFID can achieve in the retail environment.

Without Item-Level RFID• Why did six dozen parkas end up in your Miami Beach store? And

where’s that shipment of sunglasses—did it slide off the truck en route from Atlanta to L.A.?

• If you can’t see it, and can’t account for it, it’s costing you $$$, and you may not even know how much!

With Item-Level RFID• You have a complete, accurate view of your supply chain activity

in real time.• You can “see” your products as they move from the

manufacturing source through the supply chain to the sales floor to their final destination, the customer—in real time!

Without Item-Level RFID• Inaccuracies (distortion) relating to inventory and replenishment

are as high as 65% industry-wide. • Are you making decisions and forecasts based on (seriously) faulty data?

• At any given time, 8% of all retail items are reported as “out-of-stock” items, when these items are often sitting in the back room, unnoticed. • How much is this costing you? • How is it affecting the store experience for your customers?

With Item-Level RFID• 99+% accuracy achievable• A clear, precise view of where each item is at any moment, in

real time

Losing product and $$$ due to customer theft? Human error? Dishonest employees? Fraud? But don’t know how much, when, where, how, why or who?Gain Loss Intelligence with NO integration, and you will always know, in real time, WHEN, WHERE and HOW loss is occurring throughout the supply chain, leading you to the WHO and HOW of loss—the first step in correcting and eliminating shrink. Truecount RFID provides detailed “Loss Intelligence” at the item-level to help you reduce and remove shrink throughout your entire supply chain.

Without Item-Level RFID• Using barcode, the max count is 200 items per hour.• Using manual counting, accuracy rates vary; they are only as good

(and reliable) as the person responsible for the task.• Employee confidence drops in proportion to time they spend

searching for misplaced and/or Out-of-Stock items.

With Item-Level RFID• Ability to count 5,000 + items per hour – a time savings of 96%. • RFID is ready to perform at up to 99+% accuracy, consistently.• Your sales floor is always at 100% capacity. • Employee confidence soars high; they know the item will be on

the shelf when the customer is ready to buy.

Your product is always in its proper place and you can track it in real time.Your showroom floor is “perfect”, with the shelves fully and properly stocked.Cycle counts are so fast, you can perform them as often as you wish. Cycle counts are so efficient that your staff will have (much) more time to devote to sales and customer service.If something is missing, you know when, where and how much, leading to how, and who!

Without Item-Level RFID• Too many “Outta sight” out of stocks

• A recent study estimates that merchants are losing about 4 percent of revenue due to out-of-stock items

• Lost sales and reduced customer satisfaction/loyalty

With Item-Level RFID• Out-of-stock are reduced by up to 50%, leading to improved

customer satisfaction and increases in sales (up to 15% in some cases)

• Satisfied customers, enhanced shopper experiences

As an innovative technology, item-level RFID is dramatically changing the retail market space. Very likely, your competition is already pushing forward with their own RFID initiatives.

demanding and aware, and they will punish retailers for inefficiency and inaccuracy. RFID, implemented in

partnership with suppliers, is one way to enhance the customer experience and improve the supply chain.
