Abstract
The article focuses on expanding the use of barcodes in selected logistics activities in a company. Our study discusses the application of barcode technology to selected logistics activities in the company in order to address the error rate in these activities and to control ownership of this technology in other logistics activities within the company during the COVID-19. The priority of the testing phase was to point out the elimination of errors in the original versus the newly proposed solution for the company on 10 products. In the test phase, the 10 products with the highest turnover in the company were used to point out the elimination of errors in various logistics activities, especially the time saved compared to the work of human personnel in the company. The company has this technology at its disposal, in the parent company as well as in the subsidiary. It was only a matter of expanding the use and applicability of this technology as well as other possibilities for research hypotheses, which we outlined at the end of the article. In this article, we focus on RFID and barcode technologies, since the company initially considered using RFID technology, however, chose the use of barcodes because it was an already known work technology. The current situation affected with COVID-19 disease requires many advantages and disadvantages of both technologies.
Highlights
The radio frequency identification (RFID) (Radio Frequency Identification) technologies arose after 2003
For the purposes of conducting an examination of the possible application of the barcode and RFID system, this study focuses on the Thai timber industry, aiming to identify the most favourable traceability technology as well
In the proposed method, consisting of three new activities does not depend on the number of cables. This means that, with more cables, it is possible the proposed method will be much more efficient. This part of the paper compares the original method of ordering cables to the proposal, a comparison made through error analysis and time measurement
Summary
The RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) technologies arose after 2003. They improve the effectiveness of many processes. It is possible to save a lot of time. These technologies have some vulnerabilities that we should consider during their application. By its very nature, automated identification has the potential to expose its subject to privacy and security risks. Literature [1] identifies these specific vulnerabilities associated with barcodes and RFID technologies and discusses ways to address such risks
