Global Building Products Manufacturer

26+ Year Managed EDI Services Partnership

Situation: A fiercely competitive industry and an increasingly digital economy make it essential that this Fortune 500 company be agile enough to cost effectively support the requirements of a complex and growing network of trading partners in 33 countries.

Solution: Since 1996, Remedi EDI consultants have managed and monitored their EDI and non-EDI communications and business processes. The relationship includes daily management and strategic consulting. Most recently, the customer followed Remedi’s recommendation to migrate from Sterling Gentran to Sterling B2B Integrator and implement the Remedi Framework solution.

Impact on Business: Implementing Framework allowed the Remedi team embedded with the customer to bring Sterling Integrator online 4x times faster than a typical B2B Integrator install while speeding onboarding and increasing visibility and simplicity for users.

Turnkey Logistics Company

Cleo Clarify Mapping and Ongoing Management

Situation: This East Coast-based turnkey logistics provider was facing the imminent retirement of their in house EDI manager, an increasingly common scenario for companies who rely on internal EDI resources. Compounding their challenge, the departure coincided with new mapping requirements from two customers who were critical to the firm’s revenue and reputation.

Solution: After a brief discovery period, the customer signed a managed EDI services contract with Remedi. The relationship called for a three-quarter time resource to create new maps in compliance with the new requirements as well as manage and monitor the company’s integration ecosystem, built around the Cleo Clarify and Harmony integration solutions.

Impact on Business: With Remedi managing their Cleo integration environment, the company no longer worries about their ability to comply with new requirements from existing customers. Confidence in their ability to meet customer needs swiftly and seamlessly has translated into fewer issues with existing trading partners as well as a more motivated sales team and a higher percentage of closed deals.
