Esta dissertação avalia a aplicabilidade da tecnologia de Identificação por Radiofrequência
(RFID) no setor têxtil, focando-se num estudo de caso de uma Pequena e Média Empresa
(PME) portuguesa de armazenagem, designada como "A Empresa em Estudo" (AEE).
Recorrendo a revisão de literatura, inquérito ao setor e análise de propostas comerciais, o
estudo identifica os desafios operacionais da empresa, como a baixa precisão de inventário
e a elevada taxa de erros. É projetado um cenário de implementação de RFID, quantificandose
os ganhos esperados: uma melhoria da precisão do inventário superior a >99,9%, uma
redução de 90% no tempo despendido nesta tarefa e a eliminação virtual de erros de picking.
A análise de viabilidade económica, cruzada com o custo de um novo armazém, demonstra
que os ganhos operacionais gerados superam o custo adicional de renda, justificando o
investimento. Conclui-se que o RFID é uma tecnologia aplicável e transformadora para a
AEE, cujo sucesso depende da superação de barreiras como o custo inicial e a integração
técnica, posicionando-a estrategicamente para ganhos de eficiência e competitividade.
This dissertation assesses the applicability of Radio-Frequency Identification (RFID) technology in the textile sector, focusing on a case study of a Portuguese Small and Mediumsized Enterprise (SME) in warehousing, referred to as "The Company under Study" (AEE). Appealing the literature review, industry survey, and analysis of commercial proposals, the study identifies the company's operational challenges, such as low inventory accuracy and high error rates. An RFID implementation scenario is projected, quantifying the expected gains: an improvement in inventory accuracy to >99.9%, a 90% reduction in time spent on this task, and the virtual elimination of picking errors. The economic feasibility analysis, combined with the cost of a new warehouse, demonstrates that the generated operational savings outweigh the additional rental cost, justifying the investment. It is concluded that RFID is an applicable and transformative technology for AEE, whose success depends on overcoming barriers such as initial cost and technical integration, strategically positioning it for efficiency gains and competitiveness.
