Rfid part tracking and information storing system and method of use

A method of maintaining and updating relevant part information for a plurality of parts using a cloud-based radio frequency identification system, comprising the steps of:

• manufacturing one of the plurality of parts;
• determining whether the one of the plurality of parts is good;
• applying a radio frequency identification tag to the one of the plurality of parts in response to determining that the one of the plurality of parts is good;
• associating the one of the plurality of parts with a radio frequency identification tag in a part database of a cloud platform server;
• associating the one of the plurality of parts with dunnage in the part database of the cloud-based platform server;
• applying a dunnage radio frequency identification tag to the dunnage and updating the part database of the cloud platform server accordingly;
• scanning the dunnage and the plurality of parts using another of the at least one radio frequency handheld scanner in communication with the cloud platform server and updating the part database of the cloud platform server;
• determining whether all of the plurality of parts and only the plurality of parts expected for the dunnage are found during the scan of the dunnage and the plurality of parts;
• placing the dunnage on hold in response to determining that at least one of not all of the plurality of parts and only the plurality of parts expected for the dunnage are not found during the scan of the dunnage and the plurality of parts;
• sending the dunnage to a quality control part review;
• initiating shipment of dunnage to at least one of a plurality of customers and passing the dunnage through a shipment portal to verify the plurality of parts to the dunnage and updating the part database of the cloud platform server;
• determining whether the plurality of parts are verified to the dunnage;
• and
• setting the dunnage as sent to customer review in the part database of the cloud platform server in response to determining that the plurality of parts are verified to the dunnage.
