Mark your calendars for October 26, 2005 at 1:00 PM Eastern U.S. time (New York time). Manufacturing Business Technology magazine is offering a free webcast outlining an RFID case study:

"Pacific Cycle, the largest bicycle supplier in North America, looked upon Wal-Mart's mandate to its top 100 suppliers to RFID-tag inbound cases and pallets not as an obstacle to overcome, but as a business opportunity.

The Wal-Mart mandate was just the start to more tangible opportunities for Pacific Cycle, like gaining real-time supply chain visibility by integrating tag information into its SAP enterprise system to achieve dynamic rebalancing of inventory flows. This integration also allowed Pacific Cycle to automate warehouse operations so that inventory movements generate transactions without human intervention."

Featured speakers in the webcast include executives from Pacific Cycle, Zebra Technologies, PEAK Technologies and SAP Consulting.

This webcast looks like it could be useful to any manufacturer considering an RFID implementation. The webcast is free, but it requires advance registration. These kinds of events often have space limitations, so don't wait. Go over and register.
