EDI is business-critical, but the costs and complexity keep growing

As trading partner networks expand, organizations find themselves locked into pricing models that punish growth, dependent on external operators for every change, and don't give enough visibility into what happens across their supply chain.

Transaction-based fees make costs unpredictable

Traditional EDI operators charge per transaction, per document or per data volume. As order volumes grow and new partners are added, costs escalate in ways that are difficult to forecast or justify. What starts as a manageable expense becomes a significant and recurring operational cost.

Onboarding takes too long

Every new supplier, customer or logistics partner introduces new requirements, message formats, testing cycles and business rules. What should be a business initiative often turns into a lengthy integration project, delaying time-to-market and increasing implementation costs.

Connecting EDI and ERP shouldn’t require constant rework

EDI standards such as EDIFACT and X12 rarely align directly with ERP data models. Mapping, validation, transformation and exception handling create complexity that grows with every new trading partner and every ERP upgrade.

Limited visibility leads to operational risk

When orders, invoices or delivery messages fail, business teams need answers quickly. Without centralized monitoring and error handling, issues can remain hidden until they affect customers, suppliers or production operations.

Replace transaction fees with predictable, fixed-cost pricing

With Frends, processing an EDI order into SAP is a single process regardless of how many transactions go through. There are no volume-based charges, no per-document fees and no scaling surprises. Organizations that previously paid traditional EDI operators per transaction can move to a flat-rate model and forecast their integration costs with confidence.

Replace transaction fees with predictable, fixed-cost pricing

Accelerate partner onboarding

Reusable EDI mappings, templates and integration patterns reduce the time and cost of onboarding new suppliers and customers. Fazer, for example, used Frends to build reusable EDI data mappings that streamlined onboarding across 15+ EDI partners integrated with their SAP environment, turning what had been a development project into a configuration exercise.

Accelerate partner onboarding

Gain visibility and take ownership of your integrations

Frends centralizes monitoring, error handling, logging and audit trails in a single platform. Teams can identify issues, reprocess failed messages and resolve problems without waiting for an external operator. The result is faster response times, fewer hidden failures and full control over a business-critical process.
