Youredi's integration solution for the wholesale industry

Modernized B2B integration solutions for the wholesale industry

WE KNOW THAT COMPANIES IN YOUR LINE OF BUSINESS HAVE A PROBLEM WITH DATA CONNECTIVITY WITH YOUR TRADING PARTNERS

Limited capabilities of old technologies to connect to modern systems
Rising unit costs eating margins, forced software upgrades of old technologies
Lack of visibility of the data flows, lack of possibility to fix errors as they occur
Slow support in change management and onboarding new trading partners hindering the growth

These are all due to the old technologies provided by traditional VAN networks, on-premise software solutions from last century and old-school business models of system integrator companies.

Digitalization is your competitive advantage

For a leading manufacturer/wholesaler in xxx industry youredi built an integration layer which they utilize to enable any partner connect with their system hassle free.

With this solution the manufacturer has overcome one of the industry’s major obstacles in lack of standards. Connectivity challenges have plagued the industry for a long time and prolonging the digitisation effort. Now with Youredi iPaaS solution, any partner can connect with them directly, no matter what data format they produce. Youredi harmonizes all the inbound order data coming from partners into a single proprietary format of the manufacturer/wholesaler and transforming the outbound data to match the data format of the partner, automating the entire order to invoice process.

The improved integration capability in the form of a fully managed turn key service has not only attracted new customers but also provided significant cost savings.

Nowadays, due to rapidly changing IT technologies, production companies are able to build up their own web stores and offer their products directly to the end customers via big trading platforms. As a result, they are becoming a competitive threat to the companies working on the wholesale market.

In order to compete with them, wholesalers have to drive digitalization. The modern approaches and IT solutions are the only way to be able to react faster and more dynamically on customer needs as well as not to lose any further business opportunities and stay ahead of the competitors.

The most common challenges Wholesalers encounter in their digitalization projects

A study of the wholesale industry conducted by Roland Berger indicates the following challenges causing delays or fails of digitalization projects:

technical integration of core systems

47% of the respondents lacking technical basis/integration (complex programming, data quality, lack of standards).

significant internal communication and alignment efforts

43% of the respondents encounter the difficulty of internal alignment

As a rule, companies are lacking experience in coordinating and prioritizing efforts between different units and with trading partners which results in poor communication and project management issue

necessary competency of own staff

36% of the respondents name lacking the necessary competency of own staff as a key reason, why their digitalization efforts are failing or at least delayed.

Focus on your Core Competency

A cloud-based integration solution can easily integrate to your existing solution, and expand its functionality.

You have a great idea of a new service that solves some of the hard problems of the industry. However, full implementation of the solution requires seamless, automated information exchange with numerous external parties - which is a hard problem by itself. You need to focus on creating your core solution, but simultaneously enable integration to possibly hundreds of external endpoints.

Youredi is a modern, cloud-based integration service capable of solving all your partner integration needs. You will create a single interface between your solution and Youredi, based on technologies you are familiar with - whether you want to communicate via modern API’s or any other method. Youredi takes care of all the details towards your partners, translating messages to the format they understand (EDI standards, API’s, XML, JSON, CSV, inhouse formats,…) and communicating via channels they already use.

With Youredi in between, you and your partners can continue focusing on your core business as we are taking care of the communications within the network. As you can rely on the services provided by us, you don’t need to care about the integration details - and simultaneously be assured that you are sharing correct data with your clients and partners.
