RFID Tag For Materials Management

The management of materials in construction projects is made problematic by materials shortages, delays in supply, price fluctuations,. damage and wastage, and lack of storage space. Paper-based reports are mostly used to record and exchange information related to the materials component within a supply chain, which is problematic, error-prone, and inefficient.

The management of materials should be consideredat all the phases of the construction process and throughout the construction and production periods. This is because poor materials management can often affect the overall construction time, quality and budget.

RFID Tag will be a potential for improving materials management especially for tracking of materials.
