A Strong Foundation for Growth 

United Gasket has been working with TrueCommerce for many years, leveraging its EDI integration with Sage 100 to streamline operations. From the start, United Gasket chose TrueCommerce for its robust EDI capabilities and seamless Sage 100 integration, ensuring a smooth and efficient process. This long-standing partnership has allowed United Gasket to avoid the challenges of sourcing a separate EDI provider while benefiting from a fully integrated solution that saves time and effort.  

United Gasket aimed to grow its network of manufacturing partners by leveraging its existing EDI capabilities. With TrueCommerce’s streamlined onboarding process for new partners, the company successfully attracted new clients and facilitated smoother transactions for all parties involved. 

David Montemayor, VP of Sales at United Gasket, explained, “Our goal in implementing EDI with our manufacturing partners is to simplify and streamline transaction management, making operations more efficient for both sides.” He added, “Effortless EDI partner onboarding is key to efficiency, and TrueCommerce streamlines the process with its structured framework. By providing a seamless, well-defined approach, it makes adding new partners faster and easier.”  

TrueCommerce EDI Mapping Empowers United Gasket’s Growth 

In addition to its seamless EDI integration with Sage 100, TrueCommerce also equipped United Gasket with essential tools for business growth, including pre-established mapping services. These features allowed United Gasket to scale its business while avoiding the time-consuming challenges of traditional integration processes.  

Montemayor said, “A proven EDI platform is essential for both current operations and attracting new customers. By streamlining order processing and eliminating manual work, EDI enhances efficiency for purchasing departments while providing partners with timely order entry and greater visibility.” 

With TrueCommerce’s comprehensive mapping process, users can bring on new trading partners with or without a pre-established mapping process. TrueCommerce even develops new trading partner maps at no additional cost, ensuring an efficient and smooth experience for all parties involved. Montemayor further emphasized, “TrueCommerce has been fantastic in mapping new EDI partners. They collaborate closely with us and our manufacturers to ensure every mapping project is completed accurately and quickly, making the entire process seamless.” 

Since implementing TrueCommerce’s EDI platform, United Gasket has seen significant benefits. The established EDI platform has made it easier to connect with new manufacturing partners, with Montemayor noting, “Since implementing TrueCommerce’s EDI platform, we’ve been able to grow our business and add 3-4 new trading partners every couple of months.” This success is attributed to the ease and efficiency of the onboarding process, which attracts new partners looking for a hassle-free solution.

Montemayor highly recommends TrueCommerce to other businesses looking for a seamless EDI solution. He emphasizes not only the ease of integrating new partners but also the exceptional customer support that sets TrueCommerce apart: 

“Integrating partners with TrueCommerce has been a lot easier than expected. But what truly stands out is the people. When something is promised, it gets done—no chasing, no wasted time.
