TrueCommerce & Thermo Fisher Scientific Nordic -Enhancing Order and Invoice Efficiency in Healthcare
Overview
Thermo Fisher Scientific Nordic, a regional division of the global science leader Thermo Fisher Scientific, employs a fair amount of people in Denmark. Operating from locations in Roskilde, Hvidovre, and Allerรธd, the company focuses on developing and supplying laboratory products and scientific solutions spanning biotechnology, pharmaceuticals, and lab equipment. With a strong commitment to innovation and continuous improvement, Thermo Fisher Nordic serves a broad customer base, including Danish, Norwegian, Swedish and Baltic customers.
The Challenge
Managing electronic invoicing with multiple hospitals and healthcare clients across the Nordics and the Baltics requires precision and reliability. Thermo Fisher needed a robust EDI system to streamline and improve the flow of e-invoices, ensuring timely, accurate exchanges that comply with healthcare sector standards. Integrating with diverse customer systems presented a complex challenge that demanded a proven, scalable solution.
The complexity of coordinating data between numerous hospital systems and healthcare providers, each with unique technical and compliance requirements, made manual processes inefficient and error prone. Thermo Fisher recognised the need for an EDI platform that could handle high volumes of transactions while maintaining strict regulatory compliance and operational transparency.
