RFID Journal Adds Airbus as Keynote Speaker at the Third Annual RFID Journal LIVE! Europe Conference and Exhibition
At the RFID event for companies doing business in Europe, Carlo K. Nizam, head of value-chain visibility and RFID at Airbus, will explain how the aircraft manufacturer is using RFID as part of an integrated, company-wide approach to help streamline business processes and reduce the cost of operations for all partners in the value chain.
New York, NY (PRWEB) September 7, 2007 – RFID Journal, the world’s leading media and events company covering radio frequency identification (RFID) technology, announced today that Carlo K. Nizam, head of value-chain visibility and RFID at Airbus, will deliver a keynote address at RFID Journal LIVE! Europe. RFID Journal’s third annual conference and exhibition in Europe will be held 6-8 November 2007, at the Mövenpick Hotel Amsterdam.
Airbus has started to implement RFID technology based on the positive results it achieved during its industrial pilot programme. Nizam, Airbus’s RFID leader, will explain how the use of RFID is part of an integrated, company-wide approach to help streamline business processes and reduce the cost of operations for all value-chain partners. He will also describe pilot results and current deployment plans, as well as how Airbus is considering using RFID across two main categories: non-flyable and flyable.
Non-flyable refers to ground-based processes including supply chain, transportation, logistics, manufacturing and assembly-related applications
Flyable refers to all in-service processes and includes operational, maintenance and payload-tracking applications.
As head of value chain visibility and RFID, Nizam is leading the strategic development, industrialization and execution of all RFID activities across Airbus. Carlo’s previous roles span aircraft design, operations management, procurement and supply-chain management.
“We have done a great deal of work to evaluate RFID’s potential to improve business processes and reduce costs across the value chain,” said Nazim. “We are pleased to be able to share our integrated, company-wide approach to RFID with the audience at RFID Journal LIVE! Europe.”
