GEARING UP FOR EDI.

BURKE, DONALD P.
- Abstract
This article provides information on the electronic data interchange (EDI) technology of Georgia Gulf, a manufacturer of chemical and plastic products. An emphasis on quality led the firm towards improving data management and communication within the company and with customers. EDI allows data to flow between business management systems by eliminating redundant data entry and the time and expense of moving information manually. Although it required extensive internal training, the author states the transformation is well worth the effort. INSET: LESSONS LEARNED.
