Edifecs Announces Ramp Manager version 6.2TM
Bellevue, WA. April 13, 2007 — Edifecs, Inc., the leading provider of B2B solutions for transaction interoperability, today announced the release of Edifecs Ramp Manager version 6.2. Building on the success of earlier editions of Ramp Manager, the new version will allow companies of all sizes to enjoy the benefits of community enablement. In addition to validation of EDI data, Ramp Manager 6.2 allows for XML Schema Definition (XSD) validation. By adding XSD validation, Ramp Manager 6.2 extends beyond EDI programs to include XML-based programs as well, including RosettaNet.
Edifecs Ramp Manager is the only community enablement application in the market that tackles the entire enablement process in a comprehensive manner. Trading partner enablement involves a community-centric, collaborative approach that automates, streamlines and documents the enablement process within a repeatable framework, allowing organizations to make informed decisions about moving partners into production, at the least possible cost. Ramp Manager also allows non-exclusive grouping of trading partners to form mini-communities for tracking individual initiatives and programs. The Edifecs Ramp Manager architecture also allows it to be tightly integrated into third party middleware platforms and applications.
Edifecs Ramp Manager ensures compliance and improves transaction quality. Edifecs Ramp Manager, which is also offered as an on-demand service, makes it easy for enterprises and their trading partners to centrally ramp, manage and scorecard their partner community. With Ramp Manager, enterprises can efficiently and rapidly on-board their vendors, suppliers and other trading partners. In addition to many other benefits, this lowers the cost of partner management and support, and provides an ongoing knowledge base of re-usable best practices for future enablement activities.
“Enterprises have come to realize that manual methods and one-off testing web site solutions are in and of themselves roadblocks to ROI as processes are automated,” said Sunny Singh, CEO of Edifecs. “Edifecs started tackling enablement from a holistic approach in 1999 and continues to innovate and extend the solution to provide the market with the only comprehensive, end-to-end solution for community enablement.”
