The WIT buying group recently selected the ASA Center for Advancing Technology's TransLink EDI solution from its partner MISG to provide a community-wide EDI enablement program. The program provides for the transaction of electronic business
documents between WIT headquarters, its owner distributors and its 300-plus supplier community.
MISG's EDI enablement program for WIT will provide the buying group and its suppliers with a cost-effective Internet-based EDI solution that supports industry-developed EDI standard guidelines and simplified document translation. TransLink® allows WIT members to exchange business documents without complicated programming and mapping by translating data to a standard format, using CAT's EDI Express guidelines. The guidelines facilitate quick, cost-effective EDI implementation throughout the plumbing and HVAC industries.
