RFID holds the promise of real-time visibility, fewer errors, and streamlined operations — but only when it’s implemented correctly. Too often, enterprises jump in too fast and end up stuck in “pilot purgatory” or burned by a failed rollout.
At AbeTech, we take a different approach. Our “Crawl-Walk-Run” model is a phased, de-risked strategy for RFID deployment that’s helped manufacturers, distributors, and logistics companies scale with confidence.
Here’s how it works — and why it’s so effective.
Crawl: Discovery & Alignment
Every successful RFID deployment starts with a clear business problem. Not a general mandate to “explore RFID,” but a specific challenge: shipping errors, missing tools, WIP delays, inventory blind spots.
During the Crawl phase, AbeTech facilitates stakeholder interviews, site walk-throughs, and process mapping. We ask:
From there, we identify whether RFID is the right fit — and if so, where it can make the most impact. This early phase includes hardware recommendations, environment testing, and high-level system architecture.
Why it matters:
Enterprises avoid wasted time and investment by starting with a tightly defined problem and measurable goal.
Walk: Pilot with Purpose
Once the use case is locked in, we move to the Walk phase — a structured pilot designed to validate technology and process. This might involve 1-2 readers, a select workflow, and sample tags. AbeTech and our software partners (like Xemelgo) collaborate to:
We also train your team and refine your tagging and labeling process. This gives you hands-on proof that RFID can deliver value before any large-scale commitment.
Why it matters:
You de-risk your investment while giving your internal teams confidence in the solution.
Run: Scale with Confidence
The final phase — Run — is where RFID delivers its full potential. You’ve proven the concept. Now it’s time to expand.
With a tested foundation in place, AbeTech helps scale the infrastructure across multiple lines, sites, or use cases. We provide:
We’ve seen clients move from tagging inventory to enabling real-time WIP tracking, automated shipping verification, and even forecasting insights — all built on the same RFID backbone.
Why it matters:
You get enterprise-grade RFID without starting from scratch every time — because we planned for scalability from Day 1.
Why It Works
What sets AbeTech apart is our deep expertise as a solution integrator
. We don’t just drop hardware at your door. We guide you through a structured process that blends technology, operations, and long-term strategy.
