Description

IDC PlanScape: IoT/RFID for Condition Intelligence in the Perishables Supply Chain


This IDC PlanScape addresses how Internet of Things (IoT)/Ambient IoT and radio frequency identification (RFID) technology, when combined with connectivity networks that allow transmission of temperature and humidity data, can enable tracking and tracing while providing intelligence about the condition of perishable products throughout the supply chain. "Tracking and tracing are not new to supply chains but have generally been limited to snapshots in time," said Jordan K. Speer, research director, Worldwide Retail Product Sourcing, Fulfilment, and Sustainability Strategies at IDC. "Any item can be brought back into temperature compliance, but this does not indicate what may have happened at other, non-monitored points along its journey to the consumer." "The ability to track and trace products without blind spots along their end-to-end journey enables businesses to provide fresh, safe, and delicious food consistently to consumers and build a trustworthy and sustainable supply chain."

How Do Licenses Work?

How Do Licenses Work?

The primary function of a report license is to define how many people within a company are authorized to use the purchased report. This is separate to how a report might be delivered. Unless specifically identified otherwise, the purchase option is Single User. Below is a helpful description of that license, along with a sampling of others most commonly offered.

  • This license allows only one user to have access to and to use/read the report. It is not one user at a time or one user group; it is an individual who will be reading and utilizing the report.

  • This license allows for the entire purchasing company to read and use the report. This is the license level that would allow for a report to be placed on an internal company shared drive for access by all employees of that direct company. This license does not extend to parent or sister company use.

  • This license is designed to allow an entire department within a company full access to a report. The departmental license is a great option for companies that have more than one location and the department is spread out all over the country/world

  • This license is for companies that have one location where they want the report to be accessible by all employees within that physical location.

  • This is the most flexible of the licensing options. Some publishers will allow you to get a license for a preset number of people (typically 5). These licenses are ideal for small work groups.

License options are at the discretion of each publisher. As such, not all licenses indicated above are available for every product. If you are uncertain of the best license for your needs or would like a license that is not proactively available, please contact us and we will be happy to assist.
