Recall Enhances Industry-Leading RFID Technology
ARMA International Conference & Expo—October 17, 2011—Recall, a global leader in document storage, secure document destruction, digital document management and data protection, today announced that its industry-leading radio frequency identification (RFID) program is now available for individual files and media tapes. No other document management company can offer this meticulous level of client care.
Recall’s secure facilities were the first in North America to use RFID technology for the rapid and accurate inventorying of cartons. Since 2007, when Recall first introduced RFID to the document management industry, tens of millions of Recall cartons now utilize the technology globally. Now, Recall extends its leadership and innovation as the only company to provide this capability across cartons, files and media tapes. With its RFID capabilities, Recall can scan and audit more than 300 cartons in less than 30 seconds, while competitors without RFID, using error-prone, manual techniques, take well over 30 minutes to scan the same number of cartons. That is a 60-fold difference in time and cost.
Corporations and institutions around the world look to Recall to store, protect, manage and retrieve, on-demand, their most valuable information. With RFID tracking technology, customers receive an added layer of document management efficiency and accuracy. This reduces the cost of critical inventorying procedures while providing the highest level of accuracy. Improving upon legacy barcode technology, Recall is the first in the industry to utilize RFID for archiving records, enabling comprehensive audits to be performed at a fraction of the time with better than 99.9 percent accuracy. Additionally, RFID helps Recall support compliance regulations, including regional Privacy Acts and Sarbanes-Oxley (SOX), by providing customers with audit reports that confirm and validate the location of every RFID carton stored.
“Having RFID tags on our cartons is very important to us at Perry Ellis, and it’s one of the reasons we chose Recall over their competitors,” said Craig Johnson, C.P.M., A.P.P., director of procurement, Perry Ellis. “This added layer of security and accuracy allows for seamless and timely inventory tracking when we need it.”
“After being the first in the industry to offer RFID technology at the carton level, Recall further extends its leadership position as the first to provide RFID at the tape and file levels, as well,” said Elton Potts, group president and chief operating officer, Recall. “By providing rapid and accurate inventorying of cartons and individual documents, companies can obtain a regular audit of their holdings on a consistent basis in a cost-effective manner. We believe this leading-edge innovation within the document management space will further assist our customers, and we are proud to be extending this technology further within Recall’s business.”
At ARMA International Conference & Expo, Recall will be demonstrating the expanded RFID technology at booth #701. Awards will be given for participation in the demo.
