Case Study: Q Drinks reduces data entry by 90% with SPS Commerce Fulfillment

Q Drinks cuts data entry by 90% with SPS Commerce

Q Drinks, a Brooklyn-based beverage producer, sought to automate its order processing to meet growing EDI compliance requirements from national retailers and distributors. Their previous EDI solution struggled with accuracy and label generation, leading to excessive manual data entry that couldn't scale with rising order volumes. The company turned to SPS Commerce and its SPS Fulfillment product for a solution.

SPS Commerce implemented its native NetSuite EDI integration, which automated the purchase order flow directly into Q Drinks' ERP system. This solution enabled the company to process 95% of key customer orders via EDI. The results were significant: SPS Commerce helped Q Drinks reduce data entry keystrokes by 90%, eliminating the need to hire 2-3 additional full-time staff. The automation also streamlined warehouse operations with automatic label printing and allowed the company to onboard new trading partners rapidly, strengthening retailer relationships.
