The Manufacturing industry is reaching unprecedented levels of competition, leading every manufacturer to look for lean techniques in order to maintain competitiveness. The emphasis is on eliminating buffer inventories that tie up resources, and instead, find ways to deliver results using a just-in-time system. This is where the ability to efficiently track work-in-process (WIP) materials becomes vital.
By tagging WIP with GAO RFID Tags, every item, bin, tote, and cart can be tracked as they move through each production station on the assembly line. For discrete manufacturers, the right parts must make their way from warehouses to bins to assembly lines. The GAO WIP Tracking Solution lets managers keep track of parts as they move in real-time to know exactly what is needed at exactly what time to ensure that disruption on the manufacturing line does not occur.
