RFID and Barcodes Sample Clauses

RFID and Barcodes. We have now presented the Lean theory about eliminating waste. It is now natural to introduce RFID because it is an important relationship between Lean and RFID. RFID is a tool that, in combination with the Lean theory, can be utilized to help eliminate waste. With this combination the working process gets more effective and the workers have more time for other preparations. When the employees are more effective at their tasks, it gains in higher quality. Figure 27 RFID system (Tags at work website, 2011) RFID stands for Radio Frequency Identification and is used to identify objects. We can compare the purpose of the RFID with the magnetic strips on the visa card. We need a scanner to read the information from the magnetic stripes, like we need a scanner to read the RFID tags as well (Technovelgy Website, 2011). So the components we need to have a complex RFID system and a complex process are: Tags, Scanners/Readers, Antennas and Host. This technology is today in use in many companies, for further detailed information about this technology, read (Xxxxx, Xxxxx, 2008). Barcodes is the most used and known type of automatic data capture (ADC) technology that is used today (Xxxxx, Xxxxx, 2008). Figure 28 Barcode (Zorox website, 2003) All the information of the product lies in the stripes in the tag. It is necessary with a scanner to read these tags and then get the information about the products. A good example of this is the products in a grocery store. All the products need to be scanned to get the price of it on the computer so the customer is able to pay. RFID versus Barcodes: RFID and barcodes both contains information about the product, but there are important differences between these two kinds of systems. If we compare RFID and barcodes, RFID have the same benefits as bar codes, but you have several options when selecting RFID:  RFID reader can be read from longer distances and don’t require a direct line between the scanner and the tags to read the information. In use of barcodes, the system requires direct lines between the scanner and the tags. The tags are also unreadable from long distances.  RFID scanners read the tags much faster than the scanners read the barcodes.  As mentioned above, the RFID tags are easier to read than the barcodes because barcodes require a direct line. But the RFID tags are also easier to read because it is more rugged and it is possible to implant the tag inside the product and it is still possible to be read.  An RFI...

  • Brand Name Drugs If the subscriber chooses a brand name drug when a bioequivalent generic drug is available, the subscriber is required to pay the standard copayment plus the difference between the cost of the brand name drug and the generic. Amounts above the copay that an individual elects to pay for a brand name instead of a generic drug will not be credited toward the out-of-pocket maximum.

  • BRAND NAME OR EQUALS/DEVIATIONS Unless otherwise specified, the mention of a particular manufacturer’s brand name or number in the specifications does not imply that this particular good is the only one that will be considered for purchase. This reference is intended solely to designate the type or quality of good that will be acceptable. Equal offers will be considered and must include descriptive literature and/or specifications. Failure to provide descriptive literature and/or specifications with equal offers will result in the disqualification of the bid. The determination as to whether any alternate good or service is or is not equal shall be made solely by the County and such determination shall be final and binding upon all bidders. The County reserves the right to request and review additional information to make such a determination. Although the County provides for the consideration of alternate bids, it reserves the right to make an award in the best interest of the County. Award may not necessarily be given to the lowest bid offered. The Bidder shall be responsible for reading very carefully, and understanding completely, the requirements and the specifications of the items bid upon. Unless the bid is in response to a “Brand Name or Equal” requirement, deviations from the specifications will only be considered if requested in writing prior to the date and time specified for receipt of bids. Deviations, if accepted, will be specifically addressed in writing via an addendum to this Invitation for Bids. Any goods or services that are not in compliance with the specifications will not be accepted.

Where librarians are involved in instructional modes listed in Article 12.03, these shall be pro-rated. For part-time regular and non-regular type 2 librarians, part of their assignment shall be scheduled as non reference desk duties as agreed upon by the librarian and the administrator responsible. Scheduling work shall follow past practices and shall be delivered in cooperation with the administrator responsible.

  • Scoring The number of routes each company operates (Route # 0001-2999, 8000-8199) will be multiplied by 2 to determine the daily number of trips. (Only accidents, breakdowns and service reports related to routes falling in this range will be used for the evaluation). The daily number of trips will be multiplied by 175 to arrive at the annual number of trips. The number of accidents, breakdowns and service complaints will be divided by the total number of trips to calculate a percent figure. Each company’s percentage will be compared to the total average. See below for a sample. BUS COMPANY NUMBER OF TOTAL BKDN PERCENT ACCIDENTS PERCENT2 SERVICE PERCENT3 ROUTES TRIPS BKDN ACCIDENTS REPORTS COMPLAINTS TO TRIPS TO TRIPS TO TRIPS A 360 58680 3 0.01% 27 0.05% 46 0.08% B 48 7824 3 0.04% 4 0.05% 39 0.50% C 123 20049 11 0.05% 9 0.04% 27 0.13% D 91 14833 0.00% 10 0.07% 11 0.07% E 124 20212 20 0.10% 19 0.09% 18 0.09% TOTALS 746 121598 37 0.03% 69 0.06% 141 0.12% To score, if a company’s percentage is less than or equal to the total percentage for that category, the company will be awarded 6 points per category. Percentages greater than the total percentage for each distinct category (Accident, Breakdown, Service Complaints) will be scored according to the following scale: Vendor Category Percent Points Less than-Equal to Ave. 6 points 0-3% above average 5 points 4-7% above average 4 points 5-8% above average 3 points 9-12% above average 2 points 13-16% 1 points Greater than 17% 0 points Example: Company A had a lower percent of breakdowns than the average total, and would receive 6 points for breakdowns. If a company has a higher percentage than the average total, 0 point will be added to their score. Company B would not receive 6 points for breakdowns. The same calculation would be performed for accidents and service complaints. Any circumstance whereby a Breakdown or Accident is found by PTS to be ‘Non Reported’ by vendor within the required timeframe (see G-36) will count as (20) ‘Reported’ instances for the purpose of this Contractor Evaluation Scoring.
