This document discusses a case study of a joint venture between a European OEM and a Chinese OEM to introduce a European car brand into China. The European OEM will initially ship "knock down kits" to China to help educate Chinese production workers. The joint venture faced challenges implementing an EDI system as it lacked EDI skills and experience with global standards. It partnered with GXS to deploy a managed services platform to connect its Oracle ERP system to the European OEM and allow documents to flow while allowing the JV to focus on production. The JV benefited by being able to focus on production while GXS handled EDI connectivity and leveraged its knowledge of the European OEM's processes.

In the first part of this video presentation I discussed the findings from a recent study that was sponsored by GXS. The study was produced by SCM World and was led by Professor Martin Christopher, Emeritus Professor of Marketing and Logistics at Cranfield School of Management in the UK.The study looked at some of the issues facing today’s suppliers and how they were having to address ever more demanding and complex requests from their customers.The second part of this video presentation discusses how GXS Managed Services can help alleviate and reduce complexities across many of today’s customer centric supply chains.

We can also provide visibility into your order life cycle and logistics networkProgram management ensures that your B2B environment is implemented correctly. A designated program manager will help define the scope of the project, the requirements and ensure that the project is completed on time. The other role of the program manager is to ensure that change requests or modifications to the B2B infrastructure are implemented correctly. When integrating with an ERP system, the program manager will ensure that any change requests are carried across both the ERP and B2B systems to ensure that they remain synchronised GXS Expert On-Boarding provides an on-boarding service for trading partners. This will include contacting each trading partner to understand their current B2B connectivity and EDI capabilities and it will include ongoing communication and training in the use of any new B2B solutions that are to be implemented across a trading partner community From a systems management perspective we can offer full system monitoring, security and proactive monitoring to provide alerts of any potential problems.

Now there are a number of challenges associated with exchanging data between suppliers and their customers.In the ideal world suppliers would like to just send simple flat files to their customers but it is not as easy as that,For example exchanging large files can dramatically reduce the speed of a network infrastructure, there are many different formats of data that can be exchanged either via machine to machine or entered via a portal environment. There are many different comms protocols, and the data itself may contain errors that have to reworked before it can be used by a customer
Suppliers have to utilise numerous document standards when working with their customers. The problem is complicated still further when suppliers are asked to support their customers in different regions around the world.Many companies use a range of legacy and modern XML based standards and each region in the world may have a slightly different flavour of these document standards.One thing is for sure, today’s suppliers face an uphill battle when trying to engage with customers who use a multitude of different messaging standards.
As shown earlier, many suppliers simply do not have the resources to manage a complex B2B environment, let alone maintain numerous document maps or integrate to back office systems such as SAP or Oracle.One of the growing trends in the IT sector over the past couple of years has been the introduction of cloud based services and this is certainly an area that will change the way in which suppliers engage with their customers. Moving application hosting, platform management and application integration to a hosted or Cloud based environment will help to simplify B2B processes and help the industry to consolidate industry standards. From a business perspective cloud based environments will also help to significantly improve competitiveness in the market and most importantly of all reduce costs and improve ROI.
