Analyzing RFID Data Streams to Improve Boeing’s Supply Chain & Logistics Operations
Radio frequency identification (RFID) is a technology that can identify and track tags attached to objects using electromagnetic fields. Throughout Boeing’s main supply chain & logistics facilities, RFID technology is used to track the movement of their inventory, tools, machinery, and employees. This system generates hundreds of thousands of data points, and our task was to analyze this data to provide Boeing with meaningful insights about their facilities. Our final product consisted of an interactive Tableau dashboard that can easily showcase the most important metrics. Our hope is that Boeing can continue to use and build upon our work to enable a faster, more efficient supply chain.
