Description
Summary:碩士 === 崑山科技大學 === 企業管理研究所 === 98 === Based on the RFID technology used in the quality system of a distribution center, this research is to explore the effects of product quality caused by the transportation and environment factors. The study aims to 1. understand if the RFID tool can be used to detect the changes of product quality during the operating process in a logistic system, 2. propose a preliminary framework for a distribution center to monitor the quality status by introducing the RFID system in the field. In general, the more investment on the RFID technology in the business, the more data and information will be required. The RFID technology has progressed fast and applied in more and more industries. However, so far, it is not found that the quality monitoring system has been set up in distribution center or in the wholesale shop. Different form other research related to the RFID application in business, the research places quality as one of the important factors in the RFID application. This paper is classified into five parts: first, introduction of the RFID and the applications in RFID in the business. Second, review literature about the environmental factors on product quality. Third, collect data and make analysis. Forth, present a preliminary concept framework of a suggested system with RFID technology to monitor the product quality. Fifth and the last, make conclusions and suggestions to the later researchers who are interested in this field. The proposed framework is used to attract the business to take into account the quality element when introducing the RFID for operations. The framework is helpful to the business and it is the most contribution of the study.
