MACO Door & Window Hardware UK has signed an agreement with Wesupply for an outsourced EDI solution to trade with one of its key customers.
MACO aims to further its EDI services to its wider client base through 2016 and beyond. Whilst its European divisions have already began this process, the UK division is still reliant on traditional processes, including telephone orders and paper invoices.
The company’s objective is to modernise its UK trading processes by implementing an outsourced EDI solution.
“We’d use EDI in many of our European divisions but currently do not trade electronically in the UK. As opposed to implementing a solution used by our European divisions, we wanted a UK provider who had experience of the domestic market and could offer faster lead times.” said James Duncan, IT Manager, MACO Door & Window Hardware UK.
He continued: “After carrying out market research, we established Wesupply are the leading EDI provider for the UK Building sector, we are confident they will provide the service we require for both MACO and our client base.”
Jon Hill, Sales Executive at Wesupply added:
“Our outsourced approach means that MACO will not have the burden of maintaining EDI on a daily basis, giving the company the freedom to concentrate on their core business practises.
MACO will also benefit from Wesupply’s Managed Service Desk who will monitor the Wesupply platform and proactively deal with any issues that may arise.”
