Hmmm, maybe because you don't need an expensive system in-house when you're not doing EDI in-house? I'd be a bit upset if I was paying paying another company to handle my edi, and I found out I still have to keep all my software in use and all those people in place to keep it functioning.

I currently develop and maintain the EDI setup (GIS on iSeries) in-house; conversion to GIS was completed this year. I have approximately 50 trading partners, who dictate the inbound/outbound document formats they send/receive. I would appreciate suggestions for doing a quick study to determine whether this is a feasible option for my company. I am looking for outsourcing options, outsourcing companies, cost ranges, lessons learned (what to look out for), etc. Thanks, Karla ...
