The intelligent logistics centre, which in this case is based on RFID technology, has excellent
operational preconditions to increase efficiency in its own operations and also to develop new service
models for their customers. Tracking and tracing of material flows including effective handling processes
is one significant approach to improving cost-efficiency throughout the supply chain, but it has also safety
and security aspects. Both safety and security issues are increasingly important in the global business
environment and in world trade. Therefore such intelligent logistics centres can strengthen their role in
global supply networks.
