The US Tax Court has selected the FileTrail RFID Tracking Solution for national roll-out across its US facilities.
(PRWEB) November 30, 2007 -- The US Tax Court has selected the FileTrail RFID Tracking Solution for national roll-out across its US facilities. FileTrail's RFID solution will track and manage assets in the Tax Court's main office in Washington, DC, as well as its remote offices nationwide.
The Courts selected FileTrail because of its leadership in RFID technology for tracking in the office environment. A legacy implementation of RFID in the Courts' library highlights how much RFID technology has advanced in that last two years. FileTrail RFID tags can be read from a distance up to 10 feet, while those in the library are limited to a 10-inch distance. Additionally, the cost of FileTrail RFID tags are less than half the cost of the RFID tags in the library.
The RFID-based auditing and Audit Discrepancy reporting in FileTrail is expected to cut the time required for the Courts' annual audit and reconciliation by over 80%. Currently, auditing requires staff to work in pairs - one person to locate and read an inventory number, and another to write the numbers down. Locating the inventory number usually involves crawling under desks, tables, and chairs, or moving equipment around. FileTrail RFID will allow staff to work individually and more quickly since the RFID tags can be read through plastic, glass, wood, etc.
The Tax Courts will leverage many other advantages of FileTrail, in addition to the RFID technology. The ability to define an unlimited number of user-defined fields and screens means that each type of asset - computer equipment, electronics, furniture, etc. - can be defined in more efficient terms, which assists staff with identification, maintenance, and disposition of the assets.
One of the key features that will help the Courts is the fact that FileTrail software is completely browser-based. This allows staff to use FileTrail from any of the remote facilities to perform asset management processes. Each facility can be managed by a set of common process for logging new inventory, auditing inventory, recording dispositions, etc., providing the same management oversight and control regardless of location.
