In our continuing efforts to deliver innovative solutions for the Records and Information Management (RIM) professional, Accutrac in conjunction with 3M RFID offers state-of-the art RFID records tracking solutions.

What is RFID?

RFID stands for Radio Frequency Identification. Think of it as having an antenna on your folder. RFID technology   provides an easy to use radio frequency identification system that facilitates the locating, accurately tracking and processing of files in and out of the central file room and throughout the office.

 Why RFID?

RFID is perfect for those that always want to know where files are located.  It makes the check in & out process so simple that everyone does it all the time. You can do location and inventory audits in a fraction of the time drastically improving productivity. This allows Records Managers to multi-task, collect pick lists, find missing files during inventory and basically get more done.

“RFID is more efficient than bar coding alone. Integrating it with records management software (Accutrac®) has made it easier than ever to inventory files and locate them quickly.  The integrated solution significantly increases accuracy and saves time and money.”
Lisa Simpkins,  Project Manager, Fulbright & Jaworski

3M offers a suite of products based on technology that uses radio frequency identification to locate, track and inventory files. A tiny microchip and antenna are embedded in a tag affixed to each file, which allows the files to be easily tracked through the entire workflow.  As a file moves between the various offices and checkpoints, a complete file history is tracked and can be easily viewed on any network computer.  Unlike bar codes, RFID tags require no line of sight between the tag and the tracker, because the information is transmitted via radio waves.
