CTG's EC/EDI practice provides high-level consulting services to analyze client business processes and recommend strategies to enable or expand e-commerce solutions. CTG implementation services include design and mapping of business documents into and from EDI universal standards (ANSI X12, UN/EDIFACT) or industry-specific standards (including XML), as well as any data structures unique to client business requirements.

Through our intensive experience with the major industries that require EDI-enabled processes, CTG significantly reduces costs often associated with EDI, saving some companies in excess of $1 million dollars annually.

In collaboration with ERP analysts, CTG EDI experts work to construct data interfaces to and from business systems, enabling them to send and receive transactions from the EC/EDI application. Using graphical BPML tools we create business processes that integrate unique business rules with the EDI translation, providing comprehensive, start-to-finish processing for standard business documents.

CTG is a vendor-neutral solution provider. We have experience with multiple vendors' tool sets and communication packages, and virtually all  the value-added networks, or VANs. We work with the environment already in place at our customer sites. For customers initiating EDI capabilities, CTG utilizes our proprietary Joint Technology Selection methodology to identify the  tools required to comply with requirements, including translation and communication software and relationships with VANs.
