There is so much in store for those attending the IBM Smarter Commerce Global Summit 2013 in Nashville this year.  Be sure to attend if you would like to see how leading organizations are meeting the demands of ever empowered customers and business partners. Gain expert insight on synchronizing the supply chain, optimizing inventory, personalizing promotions, micro-target marketing, increased relevance and surpassing customer expectations.

REMEDI has sponsored and exhibited at each of the three Smarter Commerce Global Summits since the event’s inception.  For the upcoming summit, we will also be sponsoring a Customer Led Breakout Session ( SB-3620 ) in the Smarter Commerce Sell track on Tuesday May 21st from 3 pm – 4 pm  ( Room: Canal B), entitled “How B2B Solutions Can Enable Growth”.  Additionally, you will find us in the Solution Center at location E-30.

Come see us at the Customer Led session and learn how Blue Star, a mid-sized company and global distributor, partnered with REMEDI Electronic Commerce Group to upgrade its B2B systems to manage increased B2B transaction volumes and trading partners, and significantly reduce manual processing and errors.

Also, join us in the Solutions Center to learn more about REMEDI Rapid Deployment, Supply Chain Visibility, and Executive Dashboard Solutions deployed with B2B Integration and MFT solutions from IBM.

We look forward to seeing you in Nashville!

Survey Says…See What EDI Professionals Are Reporting As Challenges and Opportunities

Post image for Survey Says…See What EDI Professionals Are Reporting As Challenges and Opportunities

by Tracy Loetz on May 2, 2013

I am catching up on my reading today and ran across a survey that has some great statistics that I would like to share.  The information is from a report called The World Without Us – Results from the EDI Professionals Survey by Ann Grackin from ChainLink Research.

Below are some of the statistics I found interesting…

  • EDI is critical to business, yet it appears that almost half (49%) of corporate management may be taking it for granted.
  • Sixty-eight percent of those surveyed said there was no contingency for their illness or future retirement.
  • When asked about the “personal situation” of the team, more than 21% told us they are struggling, hampered by old tools and poor management.
  • The connection (integration) to internal systems poses the biggest challenge. As a result, over 50% of time is allocated to support rather than addressing new efforts.

While I don’t think these statistics are surprising to those in the EDI group or department…maybe they could pass them on to their manager :)

To get a free copy of the full report, you can register at ChainLink Research.
