Importance of Technology
Implementation
The diamond supply chain is an impressive series
of linked steps and markets starting with retrieval
of rough stones from mines, and ending with the
delivery of beautiful gems to the final
consumer. The entire process involves
many stages, companies, transactions,
people, and movements of high value
stones between global locations. To
manage this process companies until now
have largely relied on layers of manual
and barcode procedures. This results in
inefficiencies, lack of control, human errors
and delays, confusion, poor customer focus
and responsiveness, and increased costs.
However changes and pressures in the
industry are compelling these companies to increasingly
look to other technologies and processes to be updated
and modernized through the use of technology and further
automation. Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) is
one such technology that can and isrevolutionizing the
diamond supply chain. It is anticipated that technology
and automation will be employed at various and
numerous points in this supply chain. The adoption of this
technology will occur at different times for different stages
and processes of the supply chain, but ultimately all these
technologies will converge, linking with and between each
other to transform the diamond industry supply chain.
