IBM today said has implemented an innovative Radio Frequency Identification (RFID)-based solution at Hindustan Petroleum Corporation's Nasik plant for tracking distribution of LPG cylinders.
Under this $2.2 million deal, IBM would design, deploy and integrate the RFID solution for tracking LPG cylinders from plant to the end-consumer, an IBM statement said.
The solution would help streamline the process of identification of LPG cylinders during bottling, distribution and supply chain, and is expected to cover 500,000 cylinders in the initial phase, it added.
This is one of the single largest tracking solution projects being implemented by IBM in India and involves infrastructure services, business consulting services and middle-ware solution, the statement said.
