For radio frequency identification (RFID) system implementation in supply chain, there are numerous commercial and academic documents and publications available. RFID technology facilitates reading of objects without physical and visual contact with real-time data transfer. In order to provide an overview of the state of the art of knowledge development on the topic, this paper systematically classifies and analyzes documents and publications regarded as guidelines, frameworks, models, and methods on RFID system implementation using a proper selection criteria, classification method and content analysis methodology. For this purpose, documents and publications on the topic that are published between 2004 and 2015, that are easily available publically online and through libraries, and that address topics relevant during the process of RFID system implementation were reviewed. A comprehensive review of existing documents and publications is provided and business and technology requirements are assessed. Totally, sixty-seven documents are short-listed for six categories based on selected criteria, where forty documents concentrate on economic analysis and special implementation aspects of RFID and only twenty-seven documents address categories of project management, implementation from the perspective of large and small and medium enterprises, and special business domains. Accordingly, irrespective of the quality and scope of the documents, the overall number of documents is small as there are different facets of an RFID system implementation and diversities in RFID applications because of the characteristics of the technology and uniqueness of business processes and needs. Based on the findings, the paper proposes future research areas.
