From: Patrick SCHOULLERSubject: programme CIP : TETAS ? a major trading company in textile machines is interested in a thematic network RFID. Madame monsieur dans le cadre des recherches de partenariat pour le programme CIP, nous avons reçu une demande d'une grande entreprise de textile turque souhaitant participer au réseau thématique sur les RFID Vous trouverez ci-dessous les informations sur cette entreprise entreprise TETAS TETAS is a major trading company in the textile machines and accessories fields with 9 different locations in 5 major cities in Turkey. TETAS primarily operates on sales and marketing and maintenance of industrial textile machines, sewing machines and supply of spare parts and accessories to its customers. With 2 major warehouses, 200 + staff of which around 120 are either mobile sale forces, engineers or staff handling the logistics of order deliveries. TETAS works with more than 20 international suppliers from different countries such as Japan , China , Taiwan, Italy , UK, France, Finland, Korea , Usa. Some of the best known international brands importing textile and apparel products are H&M, ZARA Group, Next, Tesco, George, Wallmart, Gap, Banana Republic, M&S and so on. TETAS and RFID Having numerous customers and clients whose needs matched a wide variety of services ended in inconsistency and in efficiency for TETAS. To overcome these difficulties TETAS started to seek for new technologies and a hybrid solution seemed to be the best possible one. The identification methodologies addressed for the hybrid solution were barcode, 2d barcode, uhf RFID, hf RFID, nfc, active RFID , wi-f-, gps and gprs. The point to be emphasized is that the implemented solution should not be a closed loop or pilot solution but a solution that could cope with the supply chain business procedures and bring efficiency to the various different concerned procedures with the ability to talk different systems and identification methodologies used by 3rd part partners such as suppliers, customers and 3rd party logistics companies for delivery services. The hybrid RFID solution implemented in TETAS is running live since august 2007. The project start date was June 2006. After investigating the solution Siemens , Sato , Reva and Oracle have granted strategic partnership to TETAS on RFID enabled solutions. The implementation methodologies alongside the improvement on the major kpi indicators were investigated . Huge benefits in warehouse management and efficient use of space and vehicles were established. The project also received 2008 technology award. Since then with the support of Siemens we have shown our solution to various industries to increase the awareness of RFID use in their business processes. TETAS group also has various different companies as subsidiaries. The sectors covered are mainly apparel production and export, textile and packaging label manufacturing also printing Turkish Airways tickets, stationery products trade, paper trade, leasing and financing . All of these organizations could be a potential user of these solutions .With the increasing support of some high tech companies TETAS has decided to set up a RFID based solution company with the partnership of most of their partners.
