Item-level tagging is now a mandate
Walmart has extended RFID from apparel to home, electronics, toys, and hardware, with sellable-unit compliance expected in 2026. Suppliers either tag at source or risk rejected shipments.
Every item, asset, and shipment—known, traceable, and acted on
Stackera builds RAIN RFID and IoT platforms that turn billions of reads into trusted inventory, EPCIS-grade traceability, and exception workflows wired into your ERP and WMS.

What's happening in Supply Chain & RFID
RFID stopped being a retail-apparel experiment. Mandates, tag economics, and traceability law now make item-level identity the default—and move the hard problem from reading tags to operating on the data.
Tags are cheap, data is not
Over 40 billion RAIN RFID chips ship each year and passive inlays cost cents. The cost has moved to reading reliably and turning billions of reads into trusted records.
Traceability became law
DSCSA unit-level exchange is being enforced, FSMA 204 follows in 2028, and EU Digital Product Passports start with batteries in 2027. All three lean on GS1 EPCIS 2.0.
The reader is now an edge computer
Current fixed readers run Linux and host applications, so filtering, deduplication, and direction inference happen at the dock door rather than in a distant cloud.
AI runs on the event stream
Vendors are layering agents and anomaly detection over RFID events—predicting shrink, flagging missing reads, and explaining inventory drift in plain language.
Circularity needs item identity
Resale, repair, carbon accounting, and returns authentication all depend on a serialized identity that survives from factory to second life.
The problems supply chains are facing
The gap between tagged products and a dependable operation shows up in accuracy, integration, traceability, and how quickly an exception finds an owner.
Barcode-driven stock records typically run 60–80% accurate, so planners buffer, stores over-order, and online availability lies to customers. Item-level RFID lifts accuracy past 95%—but only when reads, dedup, and zone logic are engineered rather than assumed.
From read zone to system of record
Every engagement follows the same physical-to-digital path. Each stage is owned, measured, and designed so the next one can trust it—which is why the platform still works when a reader misses a tag.
Tag & encode
GS1-compliant SGTIN and SSCC encoding at source, with tag-data validation so every identity is unique and resolvable.
Read zones
Portal, tunnel, shelf, and handheld reads tuned for antenna placement, session settings, dense-reader mode, and stray-read suppression.
Edge processing
LLRP and vendor SDK reads are filtered, deduplicated, and direction-inferred at the edge, with store-and-forward through network outages.
Event pipeline
MQTT and stream processing turn raw reads into EPCIS 2.0 object, aggregation, transaction, and sensor events in a governed repository.
Systems of record
Bi-directional integration with SAP, NetSuite, Manhattan, Blue Yonder, and carrier networks—ASN reconciliation, stock updates, and custody.
Intelligence
A digital twin of stock positions, anomaly detection on the event stream, and decision-grade dashboards for operations and audit.
Platforms we deliver
Each platform starts with a physical flow, the identity and events needed to describe it, and the systems that must change when the flow diverges from plan.
Inventory Visibility
Item-level RAIN RFID reads from portals, fixed readers, and handhelds become a live stock position per SKU, location, and zone—no wall-to-wall count required.
- Item-level accuracy
- Cycle counts in minutes
- Zone logic
Track & Trace
Serialized products move through an EPCIS 2.0 event ledger—commission, pack, ship, receive—so recalls, DSCSA exchanges, and Digital Product Passports start from one record.
- EPCIS 2.0
- SGTIN / SSCC
- Recall in hours
Asset Tracking
Returnable containers, tools, pallets, and equipment are located and dwell-timed across sites, with loss and under-utilisation surfaced before they hit the P&L.
- Returnables
- Dwell time
- Loss alerts
Cold Chain Monitoring
Temperature, humidity, and location telemetry is tied to batch, lane, and carrier context, raising excursions early and proving custody for regulated shipments.
- Sensor events
- Excursion alerts
- Custody proof
Exception Control Tower
Missing reads, mismatched ASNs, late milestones, and shrink patterns are scored, routed to an owner, and resolved in workflows that write back to your ERP and WMS.
- ASN reconciliation
- Owner routing
- ERP / WMS write-back

The right engagement for your supply chain platform
Start with a site pilot, build your platform, or expand an existing deployment. We agree the scope, hardware dependencies, and ownership before delivery begins.
Site Pilot
Validate tag placement, read coverage, and exception handling in a focused operational area before a wider rollout.
Best for: Teams testing RFID or IoT in a real facility.
Scoped
Platform Build
Build the event pipeline, inventory views, and ERP or WMS integrations around agreed workflows.
Best for: Operators who need one trusted view of items and assets.
4–8 weeks
Multi-Site Rollout
Repeat proven configurations across locations with site acceptance checks, training, and a staged cutover plan.
Best for: Organizations expanding beyond a successful pilot.
Scoped
Platform Takeover
Review an existing deployment, trace missed or duplicate events, and prioritize reliability and integration improvements.
Best for: Teams inheriting a tracking platform or mixed reader estate.
Platform takeover in 3 days
How Delivery Runs
- 1 week
Discovery & Architecture
Map the physical workflow, hardware dependencies, and integration needs, then agree the pilot scope and acceptance measures.
- 4–6 weeks
Build & Launch
Validate reads on site, connect event pipelines, and test exception handling with operators before the scoped rollout.
- Ongoing
Operate & Improve
Monitor device health, event quality, and site feedback. Maintain integrations and improve the platform as operations expand.
Not sure which model fits?
Start with a discovery sprint to assess your site workflow, hardware dependencies, and integration needs before planning a focused pilot.
