Abstract

In SCM(Supply Chain Management), a management paradigm where the customer satisfaction is to be achieved by minimizing the cost, reducing the uncertainty, and obtaining the overall optimization. As it performs the integrated operation of the paths of information, assets, and knowledge from the raw material providers to the retailers, the adoption of RFID(Radio Frequency Identification) in SCM could be expected to magnify the effectiveness of the system. However, there is a huge risk by deciding whether or not RFID system is adopted without the objective analysis under the uncertain circumstances. This research paper presents the statistical analysis methodologies for the comparison of RFID with Barcode on the aspect of utility and the statistical analysis tool, RUSAT, which was programmed for nonstatisticians' convenience. Assuming a pharmaceutical industry, this paper illustrates how the data were entered and analyzed in RUSAT. The results of this research are expected to be used not only for the pharmaceutical related company but also for the manufacturer, the whole-saler, and the retailer in the other logistic industries.

공급사슬망(Supply Chain Management: SCM)은 비용을 최소화시키고, 불확실성을 줄이며 전체적인 최적화 과정을 통해 고객만족을 달성하려는 일종의 경영 패러다임이다. 이는 모든 거래 파트너들 사이의 원료, 부품뿐만 아니라 정보, 자금, 지식의 흐름을 통합적으로 관리운영하기 때문에 SCM의 RFID 도입은 전체 SCM의 효율성을 증가시킬 수 있을 것으로 기대되고 있다. 하지만 불확실한 환경 하에서 객관적인 분석 없이 RFID 시스템 도입여부를 판단하는 의사결정과정에는 한계가 있고 리스크도 크다. 따라서 본 연구는 RFID 시스템의 유효성을 바코드와 비교하고자 할 때 사용될 수 있는 통계적인 분석 모형들을 제시하고 있으며, 비전문 통계인도 이를 쉽게 사용하여 자료를 입력 및 분석할 수 있는 RUSAT(RFID Utility Statistical Analysis Tool)라는 분석 도구를 개발하였다. 본 연구에서 개발된 RUSAT는 향후 RFID 시스템을 도입하고자 하는 기업들에게 효과적인 의사결정 도구로써 널리 활용되기를 기대한다.
