Polish national postal service Poczta Polska (Polish Post) has piloted a radio frequency identification-based solution from ProxiGroup to improve the efficiency of its distribution center. The two-week pilot, which ended last month, tracked 1,000 parcels via ultrahigh-frequency (UHF) RFID tags attached to them as they moved through zones within its Kielce facility. The pilot found that parcels could be tracked in real time, eliminating the need for bar-code scanning.
Polish Post launched the pilot of ProxiGroup’s RFID technology to determine whether the system could make its service faster and more accurate. The postal company competes with other private carriers in Poland that have proven to be faster at moving parcels. In 2013, the Polish Post earmarked 250 million Polish zloty—about $69.5 million—for the modernization of its logistics, among other improvements, to boost its efficiency.
