Three Best-of-Breed Cloud Providers Create a Seamless EDI and B2Bi Experience for a Mutual Customer

July 8, 2019

LOUISVILLE, KY (May 28, 2019)- Infocon Systems announced today the successful EDI implementation and ERP integration for one of its key customers Xtreme Mats. The company leveraged Infocon Systems’ 30+ years of expertise developing custom solutions for any industry and the ability to integrate into any business process management system, a rare phenomenon in the EDI marketplace.

As a part of their corporate sales strategy, Xtreme Mats decided to increase its customer base, adding four trading partners to its portfolio. Over a period of time, meeting the EDI mandates from each of their trading partners along with keying and re-keying data into their ERP applications-Quickbooks and ShipStation separately became cumbersome and was more prone to errors affecting the overall growth.

“In the world of e-commerce, implementation time and accessibility are crucial. We can’t afford to wait 24-48 hours for a response or support. The Infocon team responded quickly to all of our needs and questions and also explained the entire EDI process so thoroughly we were able to streamline our side of the transaction even further. The implementation time between our EDI partners and our shipping software was 75% faster with Infocon than with any other solution out there we explored. The ongoing support team is quick to react and resolve any issues that arose. The integration is saving us 10 to 15 hours per week,” said Brandon Burkey, CEO at Xtreme Mats.

Infocon Systems worked with Quickbooks and our Shipping Partner ShipStation to create an impeccable solution which delivered breakthrough results almost immediately driving business impact.

“EDI is a critical channel for so many merchants looking to grow through the retail channel. Drop shipping can be complex to manage, and the combination of ShipStation and Infocon allowed Xtreme Mats to streamline their processes and grow more quickly without huge costs or overhead. Our mission is to help companies become exceptionally efficient, and that mission was certainly realized here,” said Russell Griffin, Senior Director, Channels at ShipStation.

A custom solution with a seamless EDI workflow to automate the order processing cycle was developed which involved two parts: First, the exchange of the purchase orders and invoices between the trading partners and Xtreme Mats resulting in three times more efficiency. Second, was integrating the EDI data with the two ERPs for information to flow back and forth and in turn to their trading partners. Xtreme Mats now doesn’t need to create purchase orders/invoices manually and can fulfill more orders for its current and future customers, freeing their teams to support more growth.

“In a fiercely competitive world of e-commerce it is absolutely necessary to reduce cost of processing orders. Best of breed cloud solutions like Infocon for EDI, ShipStation for shipping and QuickBooks for accounting seamlessly integrate resulting in tremendous cost savings,” said Deepak Nijhawan, President at Infocon Systems.
