VW's Uruguayan Importer Uses RFID to Track Maintenance Tools
November 6, 2014
The company, which provides maintenance and repairs services for Volkswagen, Audi and Man cars and trucks in Uruguay, has been using an RFID solution supplied by Identis RFID Systems to identify which tools are removed from a storage area at its Montevideo maintenance facility, and by whom. Julio Cesar Lestido has told Identis that the solution has reduced expenditures related to replacing tools that end up missing, and that it has also made the management of those tools more efficient, by identifying which tools are used most frequently, for how long and by whom.
