RaptorRFID – Enhancing Inventory Visibility and Audit Compliance Across the DoD

Tech Focus Area

Autonomous Logistics

Abstract

Problem:  Despite billions invested in ERP platforms, WMS modernization, and audit remediation contracts, the Department of Defense still faces material weaknesses in inventory visibility, asset accountability, and internal control compliance.  Current tools fail to provide real-time, rack-level asset traceability, particularly in high-tempo environments. 

One of the Department of Defense's most persistent readiness challenges: achieving accurate, auditable, and real-time visibility of inventory assets across the joint supply chain.  Recent audits and policy guidance continue to highlight inventory visibility and internal control compliance as mission-critical shortfalls.  

Solution:  RaptorRFID, a passive RFID-based, COTS technology, can serve as a rapid, scalable capability to help close these gaps and create new opportunities for audit readiness, operational insight, and process improvement.  Where other RFID providers focus solely on movement tracking, RaptorRFID provides verifiable, audit-ready inventory intelligence. 

RaptorRFID is precisely the type of outcome-driven, COTS-based solution highlighted in recent executive orders and modernization guidance with low deployment friction to improve traceability and provide ongoing feedback on procedural deficiencies. 

Benefits:  RaptorRFID contributes to mission assurance by resolving one of the most persistent and disruptive barriers to readiness: lack of real-time, auditable inventory visibility. By enabling faster, more accurate accountability of mission-critical assets, RaptorRFID supports both warfighter outcomes and enterprise-level mandates. 

  • Improved Auditability and Compliance
    RaptorRFID generates time-stamped, user-attributed scan records that serve as evidence of internal controls directly supporting financial statement audit objectives
  • Reduced Logistics Burden
    Enables fast, low-labor cycle counts and continuous inventory reconciliation
  • Operational Transparency
    Gains and Losses, unauthorized movements, and storage misalignments are uncovered before they become audit failures or readiness risks
  • Informs Better Decision-Making
    RaptorRFID's discrepancy reports create new operational insight for commanders and logisticians to highlight asset trends, tag anomalies, and exception frequency 

Innovation:  RaptorRFID is designed for fast, low-disruption deployment within operational environments.  RaptorRFID can be executed with minimal IT footprint, and no direct system integration.  Using rugged, portable RFID, RaptorRFID's phased deployment approach is designed to support rapid deployment, security compliance, and operational integration.  

The RaptorRFID solution combines rugged passive RFID hardware, mobile interoperability, and telemetry-based analytics in a single, intuitive platform.  RaptorRFID supports import/export via CSV, making it easy to integrate with government WMS.  The system's mobility, speed of setup, and user-focused design make it ideal for deployment in high-priority environments
