Building broader EDI capability
Picture this… the UK’s leading supplier of water management, plumbing, heating and drainage systems for the Building, Construction and Utilities markets. Your product portfolio includes well-known brands such as OSMA, Hepworth, Hep2O, Thermoboard, Intesio and Certus. You were early adopters of electronic trading technology and so are fully aware of the many benefits that come from automating the exchange of transactional documents, such as orders, invoices, credits, ASNs, remittances, statements and order acknowledgements
But, following the acquisition of Hepworth Building Products and the subsequent merger with Wavin in the UK, you’re faced with the need to merge separate customer facing EDI systems or find an alternative solution. After careful analysis of the costs and options available - and taking into account the amount of work required to combine the two systems – you decide to look for a new solution. Maintaining continuity of an error-free service for customers was essential, so ensuring that a robust, secure and cost-effective solution is found becomes the focus.
So, after evaluating your options you choose to outsource to TrueCommerce’s fully managed service. Your experience of trading with Saint-Gobain through the TrueCommerce EDI platform as well as our excellent credentials and a firm foothold in the Building sector gave you the peace of mind that you were in safe hands. With most of your customers already using TrueCommerce you are confident you’ve made the right decision. In addition, a cost-benefit analysis gives you a one year payback on the cost of implementation.
