Fp Mccann Meets Edi Mandate Deadlines Through Wesupply

COVENTRY, 3rd May 2011 – FP McCann, a leading company within the UK building and civil engineering sectors, moved to Wesupply’s OneTime™ EDI solution to meet stringent deadlines for complying with customer EDI mandates. Going live within four weeks, the company now has a fully-managed electronic trading service for its purchase order management process – improving customer collaboration and supply chain visibility.

“Speed of deployment for the OneTime solution was critical to us. We had numerous customer mandates to comply with, but one included a deadline of just four weeks. That deadline was met and we now share a common view of the full purchase order-to-invoice cycle with our customers. In addition to enabling the real-time exchange of critical business documents, visibility across multiple customers helps us improve product availability and increases invoice-matching rates.” says Brian Law, IT Manager at FP McCann.

“Complying with customer mandates on electronic trading can be a major challenge for companies. I am delighted that we were able to take on that challenge for FP McCann and bring them onto the Wesupply platform within the four week window.” says Jerry Quinn, Sales Director at Wesupply.

FP McCann will be using the Wesupply platform to automate the exchange of orders, invoices and advanced shipment notices with its customers.
