Project Goal
To deliver a product which will establish Motorola Solutions, Inc. as a
technological innovator in the medical industry.

Scope Statement
Design an RFID chip implanted in human beings listed with their medical history.
Doctors and emergency responders will retrieve data by scanning the chip.
The RFID chip will be updated by the patients normal physician during routine
appointments.
The project will begin on March 7, 2016 with an end date of November 10, 2016. Our
total budget for the project will be $1.9 million.

Basic Approach
The project approach for the RFID healthcare implant project includes
planning, initial testing, specific hospital selection, patient seminars,
equipment training, delivery of equipment and technology to
hospital. Each stage of the project will require approval and
verification from the Motorola RFID Initiatives Board who will work
closely with the hospitals approved project management board.

Concerns
Mitigating the short and long-term efects of the implanted RFID
chips during clinical trials
Avoiding the fate of VeriChip in 2010 - shut down by FDA

Conclusion
The scope of the project is high risk, high reward
Successful launch will revolutionize the medical industry
Allowing doctors, nurses and first responders to make quick decisions
by accessing a patients medical history in seconds
