Case Study: High Liner Foods Incorporated achieves a real-time virtual supply chain and streamlined global procurement with LANSA

High Liner Foods Transforms Its Business With Lansa

High Liner Foods, one of North America’s largest processors of frozen seafood and pastas, needed to shift from a paper-based, fax-heavy procurement process after moving to global sourcing. Communicating detailed shipping and quality information with overseas suppliers was slow and error-prone, and the company needed a way to track containers and share up-to-date demand from its JD Edwards ERP system.

High Liner built a LANSA-based virtual supply chain and web portal integrated with JD Edwards, enabling suppliers to view forecasts, confirm orders, and enter detailed container and quality data; LANSA also handled EDI integrations (including real‑time orders from major retailers) and other web extensions. The solution eliminated much paperwork, improved real-time visibility and control across the supply chain, sped order processing and EDI handling, and freed staff to focus on supplier collaboration and growth initiatives.
