A DataTrans Solutions Case Study
Superior Roll Forming, a manufacturer of close-tolerance, high-strength components for automotive and aerospace customers, needed a more robust EDI platform to support complex data flows and integrate with its ERP (Global Shop Solutions). Their existing internal translator and third‑party EDI setup lacked integration with critical systems like the 24/7 Traffic Department and could not easily handle complex supplier documents (ASNs, integrated labels) or scale to larger customers. To solve this, Superior Roll Forming turned to DataTrans Solutions and its STRATOS integrated EDI solution and WebEDI portal.
DataTrans Solutions implemented STRATOS adaptors to translate varied EDI formats into a standard format that fed into the WebEDI portal, added Smart Filters for easy document organization and provided live customer support and phased onboarding of trading partners. The result was improved visibility and accuracy for critical documents (830s, 862s), elimination of internal EDI maintenance, and rapid growth in connectivity—Superior Roll Forming expanded from 8 trading partners to 45—delivering measurable time and accuracy gains.
