NCR Corp. recently announced it is applying radio frequency identification (RFID) tags to cartons and pallets of retail technology products shipped from its Atlanta Customer Fulfillment Center.

The service is made possible by the implementation of NCR TransitionWorks Retail RFID Compliance, a turnkey application package offered by the company’s Automatic Identification and Data Collection (AIDC) Solutions Group.

“We are currently sending RFID-tagged shipments to a major retailer and look forward to extending this value-add service to other NCR retail and hospitality industry customers,” said Dale Grant, Vice President, Americas, for NCR Retail and Hospitality Solutions. “Businesses that implement RFID solutions in their supply-chain operations can gain added efficiencies by being able to automatically identify and validate the NCR shipment, including the individual items, and direct it to the proper destination.”
