Perfect Steel case study – all scenarios<br />
combined<br />
<strong>The</strong> total combined business case <strong>for</strong><br />
Perfect Steel features an ROI <strong>of</strong> 17.7 million<br />
euros or a net present value <strong>of</strong> 10.8 million<br />
euros after five years. <strong>The</strong> initial investment<br />
<strong>for</strong> the combined scenario is 7.3 million<br />
euros.<br />
In comparison, the total ROI <strong>of</strong> all three<br />
scenarios implemented individually is only<br />
16.9 million euros <strong>and</strong> the net present<br />
value is only 10.1 million euros after five<br />
years, while the individual investments<br />
would add up to 7.7 million euros (higher<br />
investment leading to a lower ROI / NPV).<br />
This is yet another reason why -- as was<br />
already stated in the introduction to the<br />
case study – <strong>RFID</strong> should not be regarded as<br />
a project or number <strong>of</strong> projects but rather<br />
as an infrastructure program. Only by using<br />
that infrastructure to support a growing<br />
number <strong>of</strong> use cases will allow companies<br />
to maximize the benefits this technology<br />
promises.<br />
