Operations managed include strategic systems deployment, teams of large-scale distribution operation, and human resources at an executive level. He is an expert in the field of supply chain optimization, distribution logistics, and inventory control. His contribution has laid foundation for our modern understanding of the Internet of Things (IOT), Blockchain, RFID, Auto UD and Supply Chain Technologies.Pioneering the RFID TechnologyIn 2003, soon after obtained his PhD degree Dr. Jones moved to academia bringing with him the industrial experience that revolutionized the shape of industrial engineering in further years. His unique background positioned him to develop one of the first and largest academic RFID labs in the country. While working as a newly hired assistant professor, Dr. Jones opened the Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) Supply Chain Logistics (RfSCL) lab in Lincoln, Nebraska, to aid in the advances of RFID in automatic data capture technology. The RfSCL goal was to utilize the accepted industry Six Sigma methodologies to define industry problems and, in the process of solving problems, identify and pursue relevant research opportunities. The industry– university focus has led to his lab becoming one of the National Science Foundations Industry University Cooperatives (NSF I/UCRC) in the Centers for Engineering Logistics and Distribution (CELDi).His research projects focused majorly on four areas: logistics systems analysis and design, supply chain modeling, material flow design and improvement, and intelligent systems. In the RfSCL, projects were either applied research or theoretical research models. RFID applied research concentrated on areas such as RFID and bar code integration into WMS and ERP systems or RFID in industrial applications such as conveyors which changed the face of logistics.Theoretical research models for RFID included RFID integration into GPS/GIS or alternate active tag standard development. Supply chain applied research focused on facility/transportation network modeling and RFID and bar code systems integration for inventory. Theoretical research models included mathematical modeling inventory polices and stochastic modeling of supply chain networks.His students worked on innovative projects like dealing with RFID include embedded RFID license plates (DOT), ROW underground RFID tags (TxDOT), and RFID RTLS (NASA), Corporate supply chain analysis and grain terminal network analysis.Universal acclaim for the advancements in RFID technologyDr. continues this research today, which includes a research project that led to RFID being shipped and utilized at NASA on the International Space Station (ISS) in 2013. NASA has deployed its "Project RFID" for use on the International Space Station (ISS), which includes using an RFID reader with both barcoding and RFID capabilities. This was developed in collobaratoitng with Dr. Jones lab. Dr. Dwight Mosby, Dr. Jones former student and current manager at Manager, Payload Operations Director Office at NASA mentioned " Some astronauts have tweeted from space about the usefulness of the RFID technology"Six Sigma, Quality control and Quality ManagementDr. Jones brings industry experience in quality implementations as a former consultant. He is an American Society for Quality (ASQ) Certified Six Sigma Black Belt. He originated and directed a university-level Six Sigma black belt program for several years. The program expanded to a state-level program with an industry and university certification board. He is the chairman for the International Supply Chain Education Alliance (ISCEA)—Industry Technology Board, Indian Institute of Technology Bombay (IITB) that certifies the training programs, exams and review process for the ISCEA technology RFID supply chain management (RFIDSCM), and Six Sigma programs.His biggest impact to the day in his opinion remains the implementation of yellow belt certification in developing countries. This enabled the underprivileged students who could not afford to go to college in India, Srilanka and USA to obtain certification in yellow belt which enhanced their understanding of and paved ways towards the bright industrial careers. Understanding the Pareto Analysis, fish bone diagram and Flow charting enhanced their skills and opportunities for getting hired.Supply Chain Management, Manufacturing and Industrial EngineeringDr. Erick C.
