MGK is a chemical company, specializing in pesticides.
MGK had a requirement to replace the existing integration between its ERP system and its logistics business partner ShippersEdge. The system was old, manual and prone to errors.
MGK decided that replacing the current ShippersEdge integration with an EDI solution would
- Enable the scope of data being shared between MGK and ShippersEdge to be expanded
- Provide increased automation and thereby minimise the need for MGK staff to enter data manually in the ShippersEdge system
- Improve reliability of data being exchanged
- Provide improved, and automated, notifications and error handling processes
P1 EDI was chosen to be the EDI integration layer between MGK and ShippersEdge, with P1 EDI managing EDI transactions for load tendering and carrier shipment status.
The project is currently in progress, estimated go live is October 2020.
