The ILM framework developed here includes (1) RFID checkpoints, (2) key material types, and (3) information flow between RFID checkpoints and the key material types.
The integrated framework can play a crucial role in applying RFID to material control in the building industry. Whilst some researchers have studied lifecycle management for material control with RFID [12], [15] and [16], it is highlighted that our research has advanced the field in terms of the following two aspects.
