Motorola and Y3 Technologies Join Forces to Develop RFID Solutions for YCH Group

Logistics Asia - New Products, 12/5/2008

Motorola and Y3 Technologies have formed a strategic alliance that will enable logistics and supply chain management customers to enhance operational efficiencies through best practices in Radio Frequency Identification (RFID). The agreement leverages Motorola’s strengths in developing innovative RFID technologies and products and Y3 Technologies’ pioneering experience in designing and implementing advanced supply chain solutions and applications.
Business benefits for customers may include enhanced data accuracy and higher productivity with up to 30 per cent savings in manpower and reductions in stock take lead times and material handling of around 40 per cent. Under the agreement, Y3 Technologies becomes a Motorola Premier Business Partner, enabling the joint development of tailor made solutions for customers throughout Asia.

The Motorola-Y3 Technologies relationship first began in 2004 when Y3 Technologies was looking for best-in-class RFID equipment to drive its RFID solutions. It has evolved from a vendor-client relationship to a partnership in which Y3 Technologies is one of Motorola’s key collaborators and feedback channels, enabling the continuous enhancement of RFID-related communication technologies. The strategic alliance reflects both companies’ commitment to continuously improving their respective products and services so their customers can leverage the increased speed-to-market offered by RFID-based supply chain solutions.

Y3 Technologies has been deploying its innovative RFID solutions since 2004. The company implemented the first production level RFID warehouse management project for leading Asia-based supply chain firm YCH Group enabling streamlined operations and improved supply chain visibility in its bonded warehouse.

Last month, YCH Group also announced it was building the first RFID-enabled warehouse in the Lingang Logistics Park in Shanghai China, using Y3 Technologies to deploy the solution with Motorola RFID readers and Wi-Fi infrastructure.
