Faster, smarter integration, now.
High Costs of Doing Business
There is a growing trend amongst smart customers and suppliers to require business partners to trade via an EDI system. Businesses that fail to meet this criteria will at the very least be charged high fees for noncompliance, lose priority or preferred supplier status and may well lose the relationship altogether.
Inefficient Supply Chain Processes
Productivity is a key success driver in every business and it’s vital to identify every opportunity to reduce process inefficiencies. Delays, errors and break downs in communication all result in increased costs to your business and undermine business relationships.
In the field of supply chain logistics, an order will usually remain unchanged as it passes from requisition to order, packing, shipping and invoicing. Unless those phases are linked by an electronic data interchange (EDI) system, work will be duplicated and errors can be made unnecessarily as orders and invoices are re-keyed.
Lost Profit Ability Through Poor Customer Management
On a day to day basis, your staff make critical decisions about your key business relationships. How confident are you that they are armed with instant access to the accurate information needed to prioritise one customer’s needs over another or to understand the creditor control implications of allowing business to proceed? With Greentree EDI in place your systems empower the people using them to optimise your most profitable relationships.
Document Backlogs Damage Your Business
In an ideal world transactions flow smoothly through your business, each stage being handled within the promised time frame. The real world is often quite different. Orders come through in large batches, staff holidays or illness creates backlogs, supply problems create fulfilment delays. All of these can seriously impact on your ability to meet business commitments and ultimately damage your business.
