RFID has fundamental influences on today's business management. This research seeks to formulate the opportunities and challenges, the strengths and weaknesses and the perceived benefits of RFID implementation in three industries: manufacturing, medical-service, and distribution. Ten companies of successful RFID deployment in Korea are presented. Field interview and panel discussion were used to explore the research purpose. The core challenges include RFID readability issues, lack of best practices, increasing prime cost, visible ROI, implementation cost, and employee's resistance. The strengths include IT infrastructure, system integration competency, RFID business model creation ability, executive's support. There is little weakness in Korea companies, there are many perceived benefits in three industries. The most distinctive finding is that the visible ROI was found out in the manufacturing industry, not in the distribution industry. The opportunities and challenges, the strengths and weaknesses and the perceived benefits are some different in three industries, which provide valuable guidance for Korean companies in seeking the RFID opportunities. This case study represents a pioneer research of RFID adoption in Korea.

This paper aims at investigating which factors play important roles in selecting government's new core IT industries and how competitive they are. We surveyed 6 competitiveness factors and 17 IT industries for the expert group. The logit and probit models were estimated and SWOT analysis was performed. The empirical results show that government put emphasis on marketability, externality and technology, not publicity, when selecting IT new core industry. The skilled human resources turn out to be a threat factor in the government selected IT new core industries such as home-network, third generation semi-conductor. Therefore, training or education system for skilled labors is required to develop and nurture such industries. The contribution to small medium venture industry and publicity are lower in the several industries such as intelligent service robots, post PC, embodied S/W, next generation battery, which are selected by government, not by standardized data based criterion. in such industries, marketabilities, technology, skilled human resources are threats factors to such industries. Therefore every effort for enhancing the marketability and R&D investment and education system for skilled labor are necessary to develop the industries.

Purpose: This study explores the impact of digital transformation (DT) strategies on gaining a competitive advantage in interactive educational services. Methods: We develop a service value proposition model by analyzing educational service elements to confirm the impact of DT in the classroom through case studies. This study focuses on educational services that DT has a positive impact on organizational competitiveness by providing opportunities for customers to engage in operational processes. This case study summarizes competitiveness using SWOT (strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats) analysis. Results: The findings of the case study indicate that DT-enabled competitive factors contribute to an organization's competitive advantage. The study results present key resource as social cloud services, data combination, content sharing, and products/services. The online application that collects user data about education and shares class and evaluation information creates a new class operational process in the field of educational service for a value proposition of collection-merging-sharing with social cloud function. Conclusion: The results of this study can be used as a good guideline for educational service providers interested in applying DT for improved customer satisfaction and educational organizations' competitiveness. In addition, the study findings provide theoretical and practical implications on SWOT approaches to changing the educational service provision ways through digital transformation.
