Which is the right solution for my company to use?

M&S deeply understands the diversity of its trading partner base to which we have ensured that we have multiple solutions available to meet your company’s IT capability. M&S can not make the decision as to which solution you should use, however offer the following considerations to assist your decision making:

• Do you have an existing EDI capability? Incorporate the M&S solution into your existing capability whether that is using the Web EDI solution or the B2B EDI solution.
• How many business transactions do you have with M&S per annum? If you are exchanging a high volume of business documents (Purchase Orders and Invoices) with M&S each year, the B2B EDI may offer a more efficient solution assuming your IT capability can support this. If you exchange low volumes, the Web EDI solution is likely to be most appropriate to you.
• Are you a short-season trading partner with M&S? If you only exchange small number of business documents with M&S during a small timeframe the Web EDI solution may be the most appropriate option for you.
