 RFID Tags Modernize Paper-Based Records Management"},"content":{"rendered":"<p>While many companies are struggling to modernize their Records Management policies and procedures by going electronic, one company in Malaysian is trying go high-tech with paper.\u00a0 The company is attaching radio frequency ids (RFIDs) to all of their paper documents.\u00a0 They have opted to use ultrahigh-frequency (UHF) EPC Gen 2 RFID tags and they have tagged more than 1.1 million paper documents and 500,000 cartons.\u00a0 They&#8217;re now able to locate and track any document throughout their facility.<\/p>\n<p>Peter Chan, managing director of the Malaysian company <a target=\"_blank\" title=\"Document Management via RFID\" href=\"http:\/\/www.rfidjournal.com\/article\/articleview\/4532\/1\/1\/\">said<\/a> &#8220;We understand that there is currently no records-management company in the world that has implemented RFID up to the individual document level.\u00a0 With RFID, any movement of boxes or documents moving in and out of our warehouse is accounted for automatically, without the need for any manual scanning.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Doorway portal and inventory cart scanners keep track of the movement of the documents.\u00a0 The system can read many RFID tags simultaneously.\u00a0 Each document is marked with an adhesive label that has the RFID embedded inside of with with the RFID antenna protruding perpendicularly to not impair the readability.<\/p>\n<div class=\"lightsocial_container\"><div
