Due to my extended experience in EDI area I can help you especially with EDI mentoring, EDI project leadership, trainings, workshops and audits.
EDI Mentoring
- You are new in EDI area, and you want to discuss your EDI related tasks with an experienced EDI specialist?
- You have EDI knowledge, but you want to talk about some EDI topics with some other experienced EDI specialist?
- You are in a leadership role, without EDI knowledge, and you want to hear a second, external opinion regarding some EDI related topics?
EDI Project Management
- You need somebody to manage your EDI projects? Leading your internal staff and the external service partners and customers will be a joy for me.
EDI Coverage for Employees on Vacation or Sick Leave
- You have just one EDI specialist in your company and want to make sure somebody would be around in case your internal specialist
is for example on vacation? In this case usually a long term cooperation makes sense, the longer I know your company, the better I can help with operational
EDI challenges while your internal EDI specialist is not available.
