VAI Extends Partnership With Rocket Software To Deliver Cloud EDI

Ronkonkoma, N.Y. - January 27, 2016 - VAI (Vormittag Associates, Inc.), a leading ERP software provider, today announced that users of its S2K software will be able to share standardized documents electronically through Rocket® TRUedx, developed by Rocket Software, Inc. VAI has been a Rocket partner for more than 20 years and has incorporated a number of its IBM i products into its solution stack.

Rocket® TRUedx is Rocket Software’s cloud-based EDI (Electronic Data Interchange) technology that allows organizations to comply with the EDI requirements of their trading partners, without having to get involved with mapping or translation. By integrating with VAI’s S2K software, users can exchange data with both EDI and non-EDI enabled partners, regardless of time, location or system configuration.

“We are excited that after more than two decades VAI still relies on our technologies to meet their customers’ needs,” says Dan Magid, Chief Technologist for IBM i Solutions at Rocket Software. “The adoption of TRUedx is going to bring significant business value to users because it eliminates a common pain point that many organizations experience every day.”

“Previously, VAI was only able to provide EDI technology to our larger customers due to the high up-front cost,” said Kevin Beasley, CIO, VAI. “Through our relationship with Rocket Software, S2K customers of any-size will be able to easily share data stored in their ERP system with faster data exchange, lower costs, and increased data visibility.”
