Article history: Received September 10, 2013 Received in revised format 10 December 2013 Accepted January 12 2014 Available online January 18 2014 Radio-frequency identification (RFID) is the wireless non-contact implementation of radiofrequency electromagnetic fields to transfer necessary data to identify and to track tags attached to objects, automatically. RFID has been successfully used for supply chain management (SCM) problems in order to reduce errors associated with inventory. This paper uses RFID technique in five different scenarios of labeling, errors in stolen parts, waste, wrong replacement and delivery. The study uses simulation technique based on Enterprise Dynamics to analyze three parts in an auto industry. The study considers different criteria including inventory error estimation, profitability, profitability, customer satisfaction and SCM performance. The preliminary results indicate that the proposed method is capable of optimizing most objectives, significantly. © 2014 Growing Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
