What happens when ERP providers stretch themselves too thin?

For your clients, EDI integration is more necessary than ever to overcome the trials and tribulations of the modern supply chain—but your specialty is providing strategic ERP solutions, not EDI. Try to do both, and you could end up neglecting your core offerings and competencies—causing both you and your clients to miss out on growth opportunities and lose your competitive edges.

Having an EDI partner you can trust means you don’t always have to be an ERP provider who “does it all.”

EDI and ERP belong together—so do ERP providers and EDI partners.

Your expertise is in connecting your clients to the Enterprise Resource Planning solutions they need to stay competitive in their industry. When you partner up with leading EDI managed service specialists, you free up your time and resources to focus exclusively on what you do best and ensure the success of your ERP projects—while your clients get the best of both worlds.

ERP-EDI Partnership FAQ

GraceBlood is focused solely on providing cloud EDI managed services, enabling us to devote our entire body of resources toward developing and maintaining bespoke EDI implementation solutions for each of our clients. In other words, we focus exclusively on EDI so you can focus exclusively on ERP.

Every business is different and deserves more than a one-size-fits-all approach to EDI implementation. We use a six-step process to ensure that our solutions meet the unique needs and fit the circumstances of each client and provide them with useful capabilities to expand their trading partner community and grow their business:

  • Gather pertinent information
  • Analyze project materials, goals, and project steps
  • Design, configure, and test EDI solutions
  • Go live
  • Evaluate whether all objectives have been met or if any changes should be made
  • Tune up the EDI implementation as needed

We intend for our relationships with ERP partners and their clients to be symbiotic, long-term relationships. We provide comprehensive assistance in helping you and your clients transition to new EDI implementations and make the most of your new capabilities. From training to technical support, as long as you and your clients rely on our EDI solutions, we do whatever it takes to ensure you have the EDI capability required to thrive in your industry.

Every EDI integration process is different. We start by thoroughly assessing and reviewing our clients’ existing systems, capabilities, and constraints, including the architecture and features of their ERP systems of choice, and approach each implementation as a unique project with its own starting point and objective.

Our EDI solutions are fully based in the cloud and make use of leading cloud platforms to ensure the greatest possible uptime for our EDI solutions. By leveraging cloud infrastructure, it’s easy to scale up or scale down the capabilities of our custom EDI solutions to reflect our clients’ changing needs.
