A faulty batch of RFID tags has halted an airport access project for 1,000 taxis in Gran Canaria after 800 units were already installed, forcing a complete replacement order. This incident underscores the critical financial and logistical risks of hardware quality control failures in municipal deployments, where post-installation defects can significantly delay operations and inflate labor costs.
