Pi-Based NFC Scanning System

Automate Inventory Management with Pi-Based NFC Scanning

In today’s fast-paced supply chain environment, businesses need smarter, more efficient ways to manage inventory. Manual reorder tracking often leads to delays, errors, and missing stock replenishments. That’s why we’re excited to introduce our new Pi-based NFC scanning solution—a streamlined, automated approach to inventory management that eliminates manual tracking and seamlessly integrates with your ERP system.

What Is the Pi-Based NFC Scanner?

Our Pi-based NFC scanner is a compact, fully automated device designed to read NFC-enabled reorder cards and transmit scan data in real time to a user-specified API via JSON. This means no more lost reorder cards, no manual data entry, and no waiting for stock replenishments to be processed manually.

Key Features & Benefits:

Simply tap any NFC-enabled reorder card, and the scanner does the rest. 

Automated API Integration – Instantly sends reorder data to any ERP system that supports API input. No ERP integration, the system can work with any business workflow system that can accept web triggers.

Fast & Accurate Reordering – Eliminates human error and ensures stock is replenished without delays. No more collecting of cards, a major sticking point in the reorder process at my organization was reorder cards getting lost in the movement to and from the purchasing agent. Scanning on site eliminates this.

Compact & Efficient – Built using a Raspberry Pi, the scanner is affordable, scalable, and easy to deploy. Raspberry Pi's offer organizations a cost efficient hardware solution. The universal hardware means you aren't locked in to a single vendor.

Customizable JSON Output – Configure API endpoints to fit seamlessly into your existing system, or modify as needed to fit your organization's exact requirements. 

How It Works

1. Scan an NFC-enabled reorder card at the stock location.

2. The Pi-based NFC scanner reads the encoded reorder information.

3. The scanner transmits data instantly via JSON to your ERP’s API.

4. The ERP system processes the reorder automatically, eliminating manual intervention.

Who Can Benefit from This Solution?

• Manufacturers & Distributors managing complex inventories.

• Warehouses & Logistics Teams looking to improve stock accuracy.

• Retailers & E-commerce Fulfillment Centers needing faster reordering.
