Abstract: The aim of this paper is to examine the influence of radio frequency identification (RFID) deployment on firms manufacturing effectiveness and efficiency, and ultimately its impact on organizational performance via supply chain performance. The data was collected from 104 middle level and front-line managerial employees of three organizations. Structural Equation Modelling (SEM) technique was used to analyse the data in order to test the hypotheses. Findings point out that deployment of RFID leads toward enhanced manufacturing effectiveness and efficiency, enhancement in effectiveness lead the organization toward better supply chain. Findings suggest that firms can adopt RFID technology to boost up their performance in terms of manufacturing effectiveness and efficiency and supply.
