Part II
Implementing RTLS in Your World
In this part . . .
The real value of an RTLS isn’t the technology, but rather the application of the technology in real-world practice. This part contains four chapters to help you do just that.
In Chapter 4, I stress upon the importance of understanding the real-world usage of your RTLS application and provide you some questions that you must answer before you even look at the alternative solutions or their trade-offs. In Chapters 5 and 6, you discover what to do as part of preparing for installation, what you need to do to ensure that the contracted level of service is provided to the users of the RTLS, and what processes you need in place so that you can react to failures after it’s installed. In Chapter 7, I present various integration opportunities and what you may want to do to integrate an RTLS with your existing technology.
Take it from me, after you know how an RTLS will be used, installed, managed, and weaved in the fabric of your organization, you’ll be more comfortable in selecting the right technology for an RTLS.
