Leaders in the $300 billion school and office products industry have realized that data synchronization can improve their speed to market and increase supply chain efficiency. Several major players in this industry have been instrumental in developing the standards for the office vertical. 1SYNC has worked with office supply retailers like Office Depot and suppliers like Sauder, 3M, BIC and others to develop a process by which these trading partners can exchange item information within the Global Data Synchronization Network.
Office Depot is anticipating several key benefits as a result of implementing data synchronization including: solidifying their E-business strategy, moving item information gathering to “near real time”, reducing item set up time by automating manual processes, increasing speed to market on new items, and optimizing return on relationships between their suppliers and their customers who purchase the products.
