A new survey has been released by DB Global Services that could help IT organizations assess their EDI initiatives against
business objectives and budget plans.
The survey is a guide to auditing an EDI initiative and discovering exactly where and how budget and IT staff time have been
consumed. It helps to reveal the fines, penalties, and charge-backs arising from EDI and other types of errors, the monthly
costs for partner communications, and where consultants have become "business-as-usual" in an EDI initiative.

"EDI complacency is not the norm," says Dennis Bonagura, president of DB Global Services, a B2B solutions and services
company. "Many organizations approach EDI and B2B each year at budgeting time as a necessary evil," he says. "They
understand the importance to customer satisfaction and supply chain performance and typically look for IT efficiencies. On the
whole, it is viewed as a necessary evil, something like the electric bill, taking the position, 'we have to pay for it; it's
outrageous, but that's what it takes.'"
Bonagura reports that customers have found choosing either installed software or a hosted service bypasses opportunities
that may suit a particular budget, set of IT resources, or overall business objectives. A managed service based behind the
firewall or off-site servers can free up expensive IT resources now locked up in "business as usual." In addition, a managed
services approach offers organizational flexibility in addressing peak work demands, competing project requirements, and skill
shortages. In effect, it can blend the internal and external capabilities to align IT resources with strategic business initiatives,
says Bonagura.
The survey is available to IT managers without cost, commitment, or registration from
