Case Study: a global building products manufacturer achieves seamless EDI migration and reduced overhead with Remedi managed services

This Global Manufacturer Has Relied on Remedi Managed EDI Services Since 1994

A major global building products manufacturer faced the challenge of migrating its mission-critical EDI system from the obsolete IBM Sterling Gentran to the modern IBM Sterling B2B Integrator. With billions in revenue flowing through the system and a vast network of global trading partners, the manufacturer needed to ensure a seamless transition with absolutely no disruption to its business operations. They turned to their long-time vendor, Remedi, and its managed EDI services for a solution.

Remedi implemented a meticulously planned, phased migration, expanding its on-site team to five consultants. By leveraging its pre-built Architecture and Workflow Framework, Remedi reduced the implementation time by two-thirds compared to a traditional migration. The result was a flawless cut-over with trading partners reporting no adverse impacts. Beyond the migration, Remedi's managed services dramatically reduced the client's administrative overhead, cutting internal management from three people to one, and slashed the onboarding time for new trading partners from weeks to just a few days.
