B2BGateway's EDI Connect App Brings Maclaren's Customer Communications Into the 21st Century!

Iconic baby stroller company uses newly developed B2BGateway EDI Connect App to manage all customer accounts with backend NetSuite ERP while on the go!

Maclaren, the company which introduced the world’s first lightweight aluminum baby stroller over fifty years ago, has announced that it has implemented B2BGateway’s EDI Connect App to help staff monitor all EDI customer accounts while on the move.

In order to improve supply chain efficiencies, comply with customer requirements and to scale for rapid growth, Maclaren enlisted the help of B2BGateway to integrate EDI with their NetSuite ERP system. Having a fully integrated, cloud based EDI solution allows Maclaren to automate the sending and receiving of standard business documents such as purchase orders, invoices and advanced shipping notifications (ASN) with global customers such as Amazon, Bed Bath & Beyond, John Lewis, Saks and Target to name but a few. Having B2BGateway’s EDI solution fully integrated with Maclaren’s NetSuite system removes the need for the Maclaren staff to manually re-key data; this in turn leads to reduced errors, lower labor costs and faster payments from their customers.

B2BGateway have made further improvements to their solutions offered to all clients by recently introducing the B2BGateway EDI Connect App. The App supports both iOS and Android platforms and is available to download for free on the Apple iTunes and Google Play app stores. While the existing B2BGateway platform allows users to manage their full EDI accounts, clients can now use the B2BGateway EDI Connect App on their Android and Apple devices to oversee trading partner relationships, daily EDI transactions and contact support 24/7. 

“B2BGateways’s cloud based, fully integrated EDI solution for NetSuite has greatly improved our overall supply chain efficiencies and customer communications,” states James Ramsey ICT Manager at Maclaren,” Now with this new wonderful B2BGateway EDI Connect App, I can catch up on where new trading partner setups stand on my walk into the office, or get a complete overview of all the day’s EDI transactions while watching my son’s soccer game.”

Louisa Gooding, Director of Sales & Strategic Relationships at B2BGateway adds “Our technologies are innovative because they meet the specific needs of business people around the world. Regardless of where they are, our clients will now have full access to all their EDI transactions thru the B2BGateway EDI Connect App. Our goal is to help clients increase productivity, generate greater market share and improve relationships with their customers. By downloading the B2BGateway EDI Connect App the user will now have instantaneous, up to date information regardless of geographical location or time zone.”  

There's an App for that - B2BGateway launches new EDI Connect App

Once users sign up for a B2BGateway EDI account, they can electronically exchange business documents such as purchase orders, invoices, shipping notices, etc., with trading partners without having to re-key any data. B2BGateway's EDI solutions are cloud based and fully integrate with the majority of ERP's as well as Warehouse and Inventory Management systems.

While the existing B2BGateway platform allows businesses to manage their full EDI accounts, clients can now use the B2BGateway EDI Connect app on their Android and Apple devices to oversee trading partner relationships, daily EDI transactions and contact their support engineers 24/7. 

B2BGateway is doing business without barriers, running regardless of geographical location, thanks to Internet connectivity, which allows for monitoring of processes in real time and keeping clients in touch with support engineers 24/7. For over 16 years B2BGateway focused on dynamic solutions in modernizing and transforming business processes. Today we manage the largest community of users in the EDI market, including over 4600 trading partners.

B2B Outings

I love planning, any kind of planning. Parties, events, activities, travel, ordering lunch for the office – you name it, I love it! I even like researching hotels and restaurants for coworker’s travels. But if someone told me they thought planning a work event was easy, I would have to refrain from slapping them in the face. B2Bgateway www.b2bgateway.net has a very diverse group of employees and trying to plan something that will accommodate everyone can be a rough task. When planning a work outing, I always have to stop and think “Will the Sales Team like this?” or “Would the Setup Programmers be interested in this?” I feel like I have exhausted the Google search “Corporate Events”. But this hasn’t jaded my love of planning. Over the past 3 years we have had some really memorable work events. The first B2BGateway event I went t to (this one I didn’t plan, but kudos to the person that did) was F1 Boston (www.F1Boston.com). The indoor kart racing track, jumpsuits and helmets included. Over the next few years, I helped planned a trip to Dave & Buster (www.DaveandBusters.com), bowling and the biggest event to date, our 10 Year Anniversary. 2009 marked our 10 Year Anniversary and we took a day trip to Block Island, RI. I am in the works for planning our next work event and as always, I am open to ideas!
