RFID successfully tested in the construction industry
British Telecom has successfully tested RFID tags in asset tracking, giving hope to the construction industry.
The trial, which was first of its kind in the construction business in the United Kingdom, took place at a major London construction site over a period of two months. The idea of the trail was to see how to improve cost-efficiencies and look at the management of assets such as vehicles, tools and equipment on large construction sites. Tracking assets in large, flung-out places like construction sites are a big concern.
Asset-tracking specialist OxLoc supported BT's arm, BT Auto-ID Services on the project.
