Simplify Shipping with EDI

Suppliers must have efficient and streamlined shipping processes in today’s fast-paced environment. Delivering orders to customers quickly allows businesses to remain competitive. 

According to a worldwide study about online purchases, about 41% of buyers hoped to receive their orders within one day. About 24% of the surveyed buyers reported wanting their order delivered in less than two hours. 

However, manual handling of shipping-related documents and transactions can be time-consuming and error-prone and hinder operational agility. When you want to meet consumers’ demands, Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) provides your solution.

Benefits of an EDI Managed Service

EDI replaces paper-based documents with digital formats. The transactional codes send standardized documents, such as purchase orders or invoices, to supply chain partners. Here are some advantages of EDI for automated communication:

• Better scaling: The data integration provides an easy way to handle seasonal order spikes and long-term business growth.
• Cost reductions: An outsourced infrastructure removes the need for specialist hardware and personnel, allowing you to reallocate team members to more strategic activities. 
• EDI compliance: The system provides data protection and high security to meet customer and local authority requirements.
• Great efficiency: Integrating EDI into your Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system improves supply chain visibility to streamline key trading processes and reduce the order-to-cash cycle. 
• High data quality: Theautomation eliminates the risk of errors from manual entry, allowing you to improve data quality and increase delivery accuracy.
