“The discussions and vendorpresentations open up manyapplications for our industry. There arealways new ways presented to solvemany of the same issues we face.”—Steve Luhnow, Boeing
“This is my third RFID Journal event. My favorite part is the conferenceseminars, where you really get tounderstand how RFID is used for valuerather than just talk about the tags.”—Floris Kleijn, Unilode Aviation Solutions
HEAR WHAT ATTENDEES SAY ABOUT RFID JOURNALEVENTS:
8:45 AM OPENING REMARKSSpeaker: Mark Roberti, Founder and Editor, RFID Journal
9:00 AM A STRATEGIC APPROACH TO RFIDCompanies in the defense sector are being asked to tag shipments to the
department of defense and some aerospace manufacturers. RFID can
deliver internal benefits, but companies need to develop a coherent
strategy for deploying RFID across the enterprise in a way that will deliver
benefits in many areas of their operations. In this session, you will hear best
practices for developing an RFID strategy that delivers near- and long-term
benefits.
Speaker: Mark Roberti, Founder and Editor, RFID Journal
9:45 AM BAE SYSTEMS IMPROVES MANUFACTURINGAND INVENTORY CAPABILITY WITH RFIDBAE Systems, an international defense, aerospace and security company,
has deployed three RFID-enabled projects in its Electronic Warfare
Integrated Manufacturing Center (EW-IMC): automated point-of-use
(POU) material inventory replenishment, automated asset and tool
tracking, and automated work-in-process (WIP) tracking. The projects
increased production capacity and capability in its supply chain and its
factories, thereby ensuring the success of current and future production
programs for its customers. Learn how the firm improved the utilization of
existing capacity across its sites, boosting manufacturing capability and
product flow, while creating a process to accelerate production transitions.
In addition, hear how the use of RFID technology may be expanded to
other factories and sites in the future.
Speaker: Deirdre Schmidt, Operations Excellence Leader, BAE Systems
10:30 AM NETWORKING BREAK IN EXHIBIT HALL
11:00 AM RFID IN COMMERCIAL AVIATION: FLYABLEPARTS, CABIN COMPLIANCE, BAGGAGE, AND ASSETMANAGEMENTRFID continues to gain traction throughout the aviation industry and
adoption in commercial aviation is increasing. Learn how RFID is being
adopted in aviation, how these programs interact with one another, and
important convergences and differences between commercial aviation
and many of the existing RFID programs in retail and manufacturing. Gain
an understanding of how the technology can increase efficiency and
improve air travel for the future.
11:45 AM TRANSFORMING A&D SUPPLY CHAINS WITHIOT SENSOR INTEGRATIONDuring this presentation, you will learn how RFID and Internet of Things
(IoT) sensor technologies can transform fragmented Aerospace & Defense
(A&D) supply chain operations – significantly optimizing asset tracking,
inventory management, warehouse and fulfillment operations, and
workflow management. Attendees will hear a case study from Tapestry
Solutions, which successfully connected 50 Boeing assembly plants with
its Enterprise Sensor Integration (ESI) technologies – saving the aerospace
giant over $100 million in its first year alone. For A&D, ESI solves
challenges due to advances in technology and threats, including massive
data collection from disjointed systems, rapid changes in globally
dispersed operations, and integration of platforms such as manned and
unmanned systems. Cloud-based ESI seamlessly integrates all types of
sensor data on a common platform - regardless of hardware models –
transforming Big Data into actionable information. Learn how ESI provides
sensor-agnostic integration for both brands and sensor types, as well as
enterprise visibility and control of assets, and integration of analytics to
facilitate relevant decision-making.
Speaker: Patrick Lubinski, Director, Business Development, Tapestry
Solutions, a Boeing Company
12:00 PM MRO COMPANY USES RFID TO INCREASEEFFICIENCY AND PRODUCTIVITYA maintenance, repair and overhaul (MRO) company services more than
200 aircraft in heavy maintenance every year. Most of its mechanics
possess their own tools and toolboxes, and at the end of each shift,
mechanics are required to carry out inventory checks to ensure no tools
were left unattended on any aircraft. The firm is using RFID technology to
reduce inventory checking times per mechanic, from 20 minutes to less
than three minutes, thereby saving more than 17 minutes per mechanic,
per day. Learn how the system contributes to staff productivity, while
ensuring that no personal tools are left behind on the aircraft, thereby
helping to eliminate the possibility of foreign object damage (FOD), and to
manage the maintenance of the tools themselves.

2:00 PM DELTA IMPROVES MAINTENANCE EFFICIENCIESWITH RFIDMany large companies struggle to manage maintenance of their fleets,
manufacturing machines and other complex assets. Delta Air Lines, which
operates more than 5,000 flights daily across an extensive domestic and
international network, is no exception. Almost eight years ago, Delta
began using RFID in its maintenance operations, tagging onboard aircraft
equipment that must be managed for both presence and expiration date.
Gain an understanding of how the RFID program at Delta has matured and
learn how they have deployed RFID technology to more efficiently manage
over 300,000 items on its fleet of more than 800 aircraft.
Speaker: Rick Lewis, Business Analyst, Aircraft Maintenance, Delta
2:45 PM DOD INTEGRATES RFID FOR PROPERTYACCOUNTABILITYLearn how the Defense Property Accountability System (DPAS) Program
Office is employing RFID and related technologies to ensure that property
accountability functionality is efficient and economical. The U.S.
Department of Defense (DoD) utilizes the DPAS program to track general
equipment, making it one of the most widely used systems in the DoD.
DPAS provides customers with a common software platform, but those
customers supply their own hardware. DPAS permits them to perform
inventory counts, move assets, associate unique item identifiers with those
assets, issue or return assets to and from users, and deploy real-time
location systems.
Speaker: Joseph Stossel, DPAS Program Manager,
U. S. Department of Defense
3:30 PM NETWORKING BREAK IN EXHIBIT HALL
4:00 PM LEVERAGING AIT AND RFID TO INCREASEASSET VISIBILITYThis session, taking place before the Expert Panel: DOD Enhances Asset
Visibility for Warfighters, will provide an overview of how AIT and RFID
technologies can be leveraged across the entire spectrum of military
operations. Gain an understanding of how the U.S. Department of Defense
is using the technologies across all business processes at the same time,
including in-process, in-use, in-hand, in-transit and in-
warehouse/inventory. Following this presentation, the panel of experts
will discuss the topic in greater detail.
Speaker: Hal Casey, DON and DOD Systems, U.S. Navy
4:45 PM EXPERT PANEL: DOD ENHANCES ASSET VISIBILITY FOR WARFIGHTERSThis U.S. Department of Defense panel will focus on the importance of
industry and academia partnerships for effective use of automatic
identification technology (AIT) to enhance many of the DOD's business
processes. The panelists will discuss the AIT efforts across the Department,
their role in supporting the DOD's AIT program, and scalability and
interoperability challenges faced for enterprise solutions.
