DOD Finalizes RFID Mandate Language

"The Department of Defense has finalized the contract clause mandating select suppliers to tag certain shipments headed for two DOD supply depots. This is an important move; once this amendment is written into the DOD suppliers’ renewed contracts, they will need to begin placing tags on shipments. Currently, the only suppliers tagging shipments—which include Honeywell and Lockheed Martin—have been doing so on a voluntary basis." Source: rfidjournal.com
