RDS Group continues to demonstrate its commitment to Indonesia’s digital transformation by strengthening its strategic partnership with Japanese global technology company, Toppan Edge Inc. Together, RDS Group and Toppan Edge Inc. are focusing on the development and deployment of Radio-Frequency Identification (RFID) technology. RFID has the potential to significantly enhance operational efficiency, improve data accuracy, and enable smart systems across various industries, including logistics, retail, healthcare, manufacturing, and the public sector.
In today’s data-driven world, RFID is no longer a supplementary tool—it has become an essential technology for industries that require real-time information and automated operations. According to reports from Statista and Allied Market Research, the global RFID market is projected to reach USD 31.42 billion by 2030. In Indonesia, RFID adoption is on the rise, driven by the need for automation, inventory efficiency, and integrated asset management systems.
Randy Chandra, President Director of RDS Group, emphasized that RFID technology has evolved from a simple tracking tool into a real-time data-driven system that integrates seamlessly with other technologies such as IoT, AI, and cloud computing. He believes RFID can serve as a foundational technology for companies aiming to achieve greater efficiency.
“We believe RFID is a fundamental tool to support future business process efficiency. From warehouses and hospitals to retail stores and ports—performance can be significantly improved through the proper implementation of RFID,” said Randy.
Keisuke Uemura from Toppan Edge Inc.’s IoT Development Department noted that RFID-based solutions have already been widely applied in many countries. Examples include TempLogger, used for temperature tracking in distribution chains; Easy Checkout LiteX, which streamlines warehouse asset logging; and e-Platch, which enables effective and efficient equipment monitoring in factories and warehouses, providing early alerts in case of anomalies. Uemura believes these innovations align well with the Indonesian market’s needs, particularly due to their fast deployment and scalability.
“We don’t want to simply act as resellers of foreign technologies. Through this partnership, we aim to enable knowledge transfer, local adaptation, and the development of solutions that truly address the specific needs of Indonesian companies,” said Uemura.
“We are highly impressed with the readiness of industry partners in Indonesia. This marks the beginning of a long-term collaboration to build an inclusive RFID ecosystem,” he added.
Echoing Uemura’s remarks, Slamet Ariyadi, General Manager of Sales and Marketing at RDS Group, explained how RDS Group, through its innovation hub Quadrant, is developing impactful solutions such as Cirrust and LIRIQ.
Cirrust is more than just a digital document management system—it helps organizations structure, search, and track information more efficiently and accurately. The platform simplifies document approval workflows and distribution processes, with customization options to match organizational needs. It also adds a layer of efficiency and security through its RFID integration, which is vital for modern archive management.
LIRIQ, meanwhile, is a smart digital platform designed for seamless RFID and barcode integration, supporting a wide range of business needs. From inventory control and asset tracking to operational efficiency, LIRIQ offers a reliable, user-friendly platform to streamline business processes and unify workflows across departments and units. With its intuitive interface and real-time notifications, LIRIQ enables users to manage operations from end to end—improving accountability, time efficiency, and data-driven decision-making.
RFID adoption in Indonesia still holds significant growth potential, especially as many organizations continue to rely on manual systems that are prone to errors and inefficiencies. RFID allows for more precise data logging, faster response to operational anomalies, and improved accuracy in decision-making.
With scalable, easily integrated technology across both hardware and software, RFID is a key enabler in accelerating industrial digitalization. The partnership between RDS Group and Toppan Edge Inc. not only offers cutting-edge solutions but also fosters a cross-border ecosystem of knowledge and technology collaboration
