Abstract :
Radio frequency identification (RFID) is widely used in various fields. Its application in private organizations is common. Typically, in private organizations, the impacts of RFID are quantified using measures like the Return on Investments. However, gaps on RFID´s impacts on public organizations still exist. The research attempts to fill this gap. We used a single case study approach at the Forest Research Institute Malaysia (FRIM) with the view that RFID is contemporary to provide insights into its application and integration. In this paper, we discuss our findings on its impacts of the adoption and provide recommendations on integration architecture for further consideration.
