Case Study: DB Schenker achieves seamless global B2B data exchange and higher transaction volumes without added cost with OpenText Trading Grid

DB Schenker Relies On Opentext™ Trading Grid™ To Communicate Internally, Meet Trading Partner Expectations

DB Schenker, a global leader in air, ocean and land logistics, faced the challenge of exchanging electronic data across a vast, geographically dispersed network of customers and trading partners—each with different protocols, formats and technical capabilities. The company needed a central EDI/EAI environment to consolidate these interfaces in Frankfurt, maintain transaction visibility and auditability, and scale services rapidly to meet time-sensitive customer needs.

Working with OpenText, DB Schenker adopted OpenText Trading Grid, Trading Grid Messaging Service and a B2B gateway integrated with its SWORD platform, enabling all partners to connect using their preferred technologies without costly changes. The solution delivered 24x7 reliable service and fast rollouts of new capabilities, producing seamless, centralized data exchange, quicker response to customer requests and higher data transaction volumes without increased cost.
