Walgreens, the nation’s fastest growing drug retailer, has deployed one of the most technically advanced and well-integrated large-scale RFID systems in the industry. The system assists in the goal of 100% shipping accuracy from distribution center to hundreds of stores by scanning in real-time every product loaded into every truck and immediately alerting workers to potential shipping mistakes.
Key components of the system include:
 |
Blue Vector edge processing intelligence performed locally at every shipping door to ensure rapid response |
|
Tight integration with Walgreens’ warehouse management system to allow each dock door to compare each departing item with the planned shipping manifest and immediately detect errors |
|
User-friendly displays to inform workers about how to correct issues as they occur |
|
Automated tag verification, diversion, and repair processes |
|
Blue Vector business logic to ensure that items are loaded in the correct order for multi-store loads |
The system was designed to replace all paperwork and barcode scanning during shipment loading. The system confirms when loads are correct and complete, and then automatically informs the warehouse management system.

Nancy Anderson, CEO of Blue Vector discusses how to benefit from cutting-edge techniques that the thought leaders in manufacturing, distribution, pharmaceutical, and retailing have discovered to successfully move projects from pilot to production. She covers how to automate business processes while leveraging existing investments in ERP and WMS systems by extending that information down to operations where it can be immediately used. She reviews different companies that have created fascinating hybrid systems using multiple RFID technologies and industrial sensors in the same system, and how they made their systems “worker friendly.” She summarizes innovative approaches to tying multiple automation projects together to lower the total cost of ownership of projects. |
