There is an a very simple way to reach your clients or trading partners
using EDI structures that are totally transparent, meaning that you invest
more in the benefits of the EDI data structures and less in the hardware and
software. One advantage of this approach is that you don't re-invent the
wheel when bringing new trading partners on board. You employ many of the
advances inherent in e-commerce to reach your trading partners. The savings
using this approach is somewhere in the order of 40-60 percent. EDI push
technology allows you to reach your trading partners and get them up and
running in record time. See us on the web http://www.bidsitecommerce.com
