Case Study: Nexans Olex reduces EDI costs and effort with B2BE

Olex moves to managed EDI service to reduce effort and resources

Nexans Olex, an Australian electrical cable manufacturer, faced high costs and inefficiency from managing its Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) in-house. The process of connecting with new trading partners was time-consuming, and the company also sought an automated solution for sending a high volume of customer invoices via fax. They partnered with B2BE to implement a managed service for these challenges.

B2BE provided its EDI and Fax Gateway solutions, which automated the exchange of purchase orders and invoices. This outsourcing eliminated manual processes and gave Nexans Olex full visibility and control. The results for Nexans Olex included a significant reduction in the cost of ownership, freed-up staff resources, and a much faster, fully auditable process for onboarding new partners. B2BE successfully managed the migration and subsequent integration with the company's new SAP system, ensuring ongoing efficiency and peace of mind.
