However, some of the disadvantages include costs, training, product label and supplies, and privacy infringement. One asset to companies like Wal-Mart is pallet tracking because it improves on-time inventory delivery. This helps Wal-Mart since they rely on just-in-time ordering.<\/jats:p>\n               <\/jats:sec>\n               <jats:sec>\n                  <jats:title>Research limitations\/implications<\/jats:title>\n                  <jats:p>RFID is currently used in many industries such as transportation and distribution, manufacturing and processing, and security and law enforcement.

Originality\/value \u2013 This form of identification can be used in large stores like Wal-Mart to receive real time information. By implementing RFID, companies will create a fully integrated supply chain system. Traditionally, many supply chain management (SCM) research has simply viewed RF-based technology as a technological innovation, not a transformational event as this paper presents.<\/jats:p>\n               <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1108\/09685220510582647","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2005,3,21]],"date-time":"2005-03-21T18:44:32Z","timestamp":1111430672000},"page":"16-28","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":102,"title":["Exploring radio frequency identification technology and its impact on business systems"],"prefix":"10.1108","volume":"13","author":[{"given":"Alan D.","family":"Smith","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Management and Marketing, Robert Morris University, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA"}]}],"member":"140","reference":[{"issue":"5","key":"2025072819442206500_b2","first-page":"119","article-title":"The right mind-set for managing information technology","volume":"76","author":"Bensaou","year":"1998","journal-title":"Harvard Business Review"},{"key":"2025072819442206500_b3","unstructured":"Cohen, B.\n           (2003), \u201cIs RFID in your future?\u201d, available at: www.networking.earthweb.com (accessed 3 June 2003)."},{"key":"2025072819442206500_b5","unstructured":"Ericson, J.\n           (2003), \u201cRadio frequency identification (RFID) changes everything\u201d, available at: www.findarticles.com."},{"issue":"3","key":"2025072819442206500_b19","first-page":"36","article-title":"Success even without five-cent RFID tags: some applications are viable at a higher price","volume":"4","author":"","year":"2003","journal-title":"Frontline Solutions"},{"key":"2025072819442206500_b7","unstructured":"Gilbert, A.\n           and Shim, R.
