摘要

Purpose - The purpose of this paper is to investigate the barriers and motivations for adoptingrnradio frequency identification (RFID), the level of RFID implementation, the processes RFID isrnutilized in, and issues in the deployment of RFID.rnDesign/methodology/approach - A survey instrument was developed based on a literature review.rnThe survey was then distributed to the members of the Association for Operations Management RhodernIsland and Boston chapters. The results were then analyzed.rnFindings - It was found that the majority of the surveyed firms are not considering RFIDrnimplementation. Lack of a business case and lack of understanding were cited as their main concerns.rnFor firms considering RFID implementation and firms that had implemented RFID, better inventoryrnmanagement, obtaining competitive advantage, and cost reduction were the three most importantrnmotivations for adopting RFID. Financial concerns and the lack of a business case were the mostrnprevalent issues. In addition, product tracking (pallets, cases, and items) in shipping was the most citedrnRFID application. It was also found that considering firms are facing less pressure from customers tornadopt RFID and reported a much higher degree of apprehension regarding potential issues thanrnimplementing firms reported for actual difficulties faced.rnResearch limitations/implications - One of the limitations is the small sample size (n = 49) whichrnmay limit the generalizability of the results.rnOriginality/value - By identifying barriers, motivations, and issues in the implementation of RFID, thisrnstudy further educates practitioners on the challenges and opportunities of RFID, as well as providingrndirection to academicians for further research on this area.
