Atlas combines technological and business process expertise to deploy comprehensive RFID systems that optimize productivity while reducing costs. Specifically, Atlas aims to be your "turnkey" partner for integrating RFID into your current operational systems. We offer the following services:
RFID Solution Architecture: The purpose of the architecture process is to design the most effective, simple, and reliable RFID system for our customers considering their specific operational environment. This service entails:
Conducting a needs-assessment of the client system and site.
Conducting a thorough site analysis to evaluate for RFID configuration and garner critical information for system implementation.
Identifying points of interference and developing contingency measures.
Designing a closed or open loop RFID system
that properly applies hardware, middleware, and software
to address client’s needs.
Developing a pilot project and evaluating the pilot project in order to demonstrate a tangible return on investment for the client.
RFID Systems Design: Atlas works with many component vendors and can therefore assist you in acquiring the components best suited for your RFID system.
Determining the specification requirements for tags, readers, antennae, middleware, software, and other necessary components.
Evaluating available hardware, software and middleware products based on quality, cost, simplicity and reliability.
Combining multiple components into a usable systems package.
Providing expertise with the capabilities and limitations of each component.
RFID Equipment Installation: Atlas technicians will install necessary RFID hardware, software, and middleware in order to implement a full-scale solution based on a successful pilot project. This includes hardwiring RFID readers/antennae, configuring RFID tags, installing software, and routing middleware.
RFID Solution Integration: The true benefit (and complexity) of RFID systems doesn't come from reading the tags, but from getting the information from those reads to the right place in a usable form. Atlas' code professionals will ensure the information you are seeking is being delivered to the appropriate place in your enterprise software in a user-friendly manner.
RFID Equipment Maintenance and Customer Support: Atlas offers
several different maintenance and repair plans and warranties. Atlas
technicians are always available to assist with any system hiccups
or repairs.
RFID
Solutions Consulting: Lean operations, Just-In-Time
operations, long-term planning, and RFID transition
strategy. With things changing so quickly, it can
be difficult for organizations to decide where,
when, and how much to commit to any particular
RFID product or standard. Let Atlas' skilled consulting
team assist you in developing your customized RFID
strategy. For more information on our general strategy
for implementation see Atlas'
7 Steps to Implementation.
RFID
Security Assessment: RFID security assessments identify
risks to your business after the introduction of
RFID. Atlas will identify and recommend processes and procedures
to ensure that you are compliant with future regulatory requirements.
Security audits performed through Atlas partner RFID
Audits are
both NIST and ISECOM compliant to assist in regulation and reporting
requirements.
