IRO replaces old EDI solution with iCore

As a manufacturing company, IRO have always depended on having efficient tools for business communication with customers, suppliers and subcontractors. Thus, the company has been using EDI for a long time. In addition to the external EDI communication, electronic messages have also been regularly exchanged with the other subsidiaries in the Van de Viele Group, to which IRO belongs.

Recently, it became obvious that the old solution, based on Amtrix, had become obsolete and could not fulfill future requirements. IRO chose iCore Integration Suite (iCIS) to replace it. The decision was made easy by the fact that configured data in the old solution is easily migrated to iCIS. The new solution will integrate the business communication with ERP system M3/Movex.

Another benefit with the iCore platform is that it will enable IRO to gradually phase out the existing BizTalk server, which presently manages the EDI communication with the other subsidiaries in the Group.

Project managers for the configuration and implementation of the new solution are EPAM (www.epam.com).
