Radio frequency identification (RFID) tags are the best choice for this situation as they can be attached to the equipment and tracked through a system that can locate the missing equipment. Bar codes and radio scanning systems also provide tracking capabilities, but RFID tags are more efficient and accurate. Electronic data interchanges are not relevant to this situation as they are used for electronic business communication.
