What are the benefits of EDI?

EDI provides trading partners with an efficient business tool for the automatic transmission of commercial data from one computer application directly to another. Companies do not need to worry about different incompatible computer systems. Through the use of EDI message standards like EANCOM®, data may be communicated quickly, efficiently and accurately irrespective of users' internal hardware and software types.

The successful implementation of EDI provides major benefits for a company and its trading partners:

  • Cost efficiency - Significantly reducing the volume of paper to be handled results in immediate savings in administrative and personnel costs. Staff can be re-deployed to other more value-added functions within the organization.
  • Increased speed - Large volumes of commercial data can be communicated from one computer to another in a matter of minutes, enabling faster response and greater customer satisfaction.
  • Improved accuracy - EDI eliminates the inevitable errors resulting from manual data input.
  • Better logistics management and increased productivity - EDI enables companies to better manage and control production, purchasing and delivery requirements. EDI is a key component of just-in-time manufacturing and quick response customer-supplier links, resulting in significant reductions in inventory levels.
