EDI (Electronic Data Interchange)

Electronic Data Interchange is the computer-to-computer exchange of intercompany business documents.  Instead of relying on paper, telephone, facsimile or mail to exchange purchase orders, quotes, invoices, and MRPs, EDI trading partners exchange data directly in an industry standard format, (ANSI X12 Transaction format).

D.B. Roberts has over 10 years experience in electronics commerce.  We are currently conducting business with many notable companies.
