EC/EDI Ltd. Offers Online Comparison for EDI Costs

TWINSBURG, OH (August 31, 2006) – EC/EDI Ltd., the largest outsourced EDI (Electronic Data Interchange) solutions provider in the world, recently introduced a value comparison calculator to their website. The calculator allows companies to compare the costs of their in-house EDI with the value offered by outsourced EDI services.
“When deciding how to do EDI, many people don’t consider all of the costs associated with doing their company’s EDI in-house,” said Steve Montgomery, President of EC/EDI, Ltd. “This calculator summarizes all those costs to provide them with an estimate of the value that outsourced EDI services can offer their company.”
The calculator takes a number of factors into consideration to help companies estimate the value outsourced EDI can offer them. The number of EDI transactions, the individual documents required for each, and the number of staff members needed to keep in-house EDI running smoothly are all included in the comparison. Other, less obvious issues, such as fines or late fees, employee overhead and turnover, and the repercussions of a system platform change, are also taken into account.
The value comparison calculator, as well as information about outsourcing EDI, can be found on the company’s website, www.ECEDILtd.com.
