Key Takeaways
Analyst predictions regarding growth rates and adoption may vary, but there is broad agreement on the potential and opportunities for RFID.
Companies must have an enterprise-wide and global strategy for RFID technology and infrastructure.
RFID provides a start, but is not a solution for all business/ supply chain challenges.
The key to success is in collaboration: no single vendor can offer end-to-end solutions with their own products and services.
Companies must pay close attention to business process and change management issues.
Consultants have developed ROI models for RFID, but as with most such models, there are limitations.
Privacy is an important issue.
Market Size & 2005 Update
The worldwide RFID Market was $1.49 billion in 2004
This includes RFID Readers, Active Tags, Passive Tags, ICs, Software, and Services
Rapid growth rates predicted for RFID based on Wal-Mart compliance deadline of January 2005 did not come true.
As companies get deeper into RFID planning and analyze potential business process changes, and with the introduction of Gen2 products, the nature and scope of projects will change, with a long-term roadmap.
This is a good thing for the RFID ecosystem as a whole, and helps avoid future implosion from poorly planned and implemented solutions
