Case Study: Orion Corporation achieves streamlined supply‑chain data integration and optimized inventory with Liaison Technologies

Liaison Technologies Cures Supply Chain Data Headache for Orion

Orion Corporation, a global Finnish manufacturer of pharmaceuticals and diagnostic tests, faced a complex supply‑chain data challenge: integrating information from hundreds of partners so orders, materials and production schedules stay accurate. Its IT systems process over 12,000 data instances a month, requiring a robust EDI solution to feed partner data reliably into Orion’s SAP system and avoid stock disruptions.

Orion outsourced integration to Liaison Technologies, using SupplierWeb for about 50 partners and a B2B platform for 15–20 large customers, with LENS providing end‑to‑end visibility and monitoring. Liaison automates data flows into SAP, removes manual configuration, triggers supplier alerts to prevent shortages, optimizes inventory levels and frees Orion’s IT team to focus on core operations—resulting in smoother order processing and better strategic decision‑making.
