Coleman Selects HighJump Software's Compliance Advantage Solution to Meet Major Retailers' RFID Requirements

HighJump Software, a 3M company, the global leader in providing highly adaptable, best-of-breed supply chain execution solutions, today announced that The Coleman Company, Inc., a manufacturer and distributor of products for outdoor leisure-time activities, has selected HighJump's Compliance Advantage solution to meet time-sensitive RFID requirements. Coleman selected HighJump to help ensure its high-volume fulfillment and distribution operations in Wichita, Kan., will be well-prepared to generate RFID tags for pallets and cases by retail customers' deadlines. Additionally, Coleman chose Compliance Advantage because its fast implementation, immediate benefit potential and system flexibility will pave the way for low total cost of system ownership.

Coleman will utilize Compliance Advantage to generate accurate advance shipping notices in combination with the application of RFID-compliant labels. As customers' RFID requirements change, Coleman will be empowered to configure Compliance Advantage easily and inexpensively to stay ahead. The solution will integrate with Coleman's existing business systems to exchange information quickly and accurately.

"Coleman will be able to address its RFID requirements quickly and effectively using Compliance Advantage," said Chris Heim, president of HighJump Software. "We are pleased that the company has selected HighJump's solution as the foundation of its RFID initiatives."
