AIM Computer Solutions, Inc. supports use of Radio-Frequency technology in Automotive Industry

 

[Fraser, MI – October 31, 2006] – AIM Computer Solutions, Inc. joins the Automotive Industry Action Group (AIAG) at its third annual RFID Summit on November 2, 2006, at the Rock Financial Showplace in Novi, Michigan.

 

AIM provides a lean ERP / Materials Management system focusing on the EDI, bar code labels and MMOG/ISO/TS16949 mandates of the production part automotive supplier.  Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) has been an emerging technology within the automotive industry for several years. AIM utilizes RF equipment from receiving through production to shipping to reduce inventory costs and increase customer service.

 

“The AIAG is a key force behind competitive, best-in-breed technology,” says Jeff Siciliano,  President, AIM Computer Solutions.  “Their initiatives are based on helping the supply chain operate as efficiently and seamlessly as possible.  Since our only customers are Automotive Production Part Suppliers,  we clearly make AIAG initiatives a top priority for our AIM Vision software solution.  In addition,  their standards assist us in developing and supporting specific solutions verses multiple interpretations of  technology that can be used in the supplier community.  The Automatic Identification Data Collection Advisory Group of the AIAG creates the forum to remove speculation on solutions,  which is a benefit to all parties.”
