The Boeing Company officials required a capable asset management system for use at the Kennedy Space Center, Fla. They turned to engineers at RFID Global Solution Inc. (RFIDGS) in Mount Airy, Md.

RFIDGS designed a radio-frequency identification (RFID)-enabled asset tracking system for the application. The system uses advanced active-RFID technology to locate equipment and tools within facilities and mobile vehicles. It also incorporates the company’s GlobalView real-time location tracking software to monitor the whereabouts of critical assets and components across pre-defined areas throughout the space center.

The system enables vehicle-mounted visibility solutions with mobile terminals, powered by GlobalTrac, in support of payload deliveries to the launch site.
