Auto-ID; Voice, RFID, Bar Coding, and Wireless LANs

Download Now!Voice Recognition and Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) offer the promise of hands-free tracking of inventory throughout the supply chain.

Through wireless Local Area Networks (LANs) and mobile computing, these and other Auto-ID technologies can help organizations increase both operational efficiency and product visibility while meeting compliance and regulatory requirements.

As a total supply chain solution provider, Tompkins Associates is uniquely qualified to help you pursue your RFID, bar coding (linear and 2-D), Voice, and other Auto-ID technology needs. We offer a full suite of operations consulting, software implementation, and systems integration services.

While we maintain active relationships with top-tier Auto-ID hardware and software vendors, we are not a value-added reseller for any product line. This independence allows us to help you choose and implement the right solution for your operations.

Key areas where Tompkins can provide guidance and support with your bar coding, RFID, Voice and wireless LAN projects include:

  • Strategy and concept development
  • Requirements and specification development
  • Solution selection
  • Pilot programs
  • Software development and modifications
  • Acquisition support and installation
  • Integration
  • Testing and training
  • Project management

Many Auto-ID projects under-perform because they are too focused on technology. Tompkins always leads with operations. We can help you keep the focus where it belongs -- on improving operations and supply chain visibility.

We can help you leverage Auto-ID and mobile computing technologies to:

  • Increase productivity of warehouse, yard and transportation operations
  • Improve visibility and control across your supply chain
  • Secure and track inventory, assets, and resources within your supply chain
  • Extend the reach of legacy applications and help automate manual processes
  • Meet customer and government compliance mandates including labeling, reporting, traceability, and ePedigree requirements.

Our Emerging Technology Center provides both our clients and staff a working warehouse environment where Auto-ID technologies can be compared side-by-side. It features a comparative pick module where Voice picking, Pick-to-Light, and RF picking can be evaluated.

At Tompkins, it is not just about hardware and software. We are always focused on the total solution.
