Abstract: Radio-frequency identification (RFID) technology is widely used in manufacturing and service industries to track inventory in transit, asset control and improve the overall supply chain. For example, RFID is used to track the product's location down the assembly line in the automobile and pharmaceutical industries. This paper explores the possibility of implementing RFID in a glass processing plant via mobile platforms (PC or smartphone apps) for searching customer ordered glasses through the various stages in the plant. It also examines how RFID can help reduce the time and cost spent on glass reworks, leading to increased profitability and customer satisfaction. Finally, the paper also explores the potential barriers to implementing RFID in a 'glass production plant' in New Zealand.
