Electronic information transfer has existed for decades, and the many advantages of this type of communication are employed by large companies where quick, flawless and secure data transfer is essential. Many companies use advanced information systems internally, hence most of their documents are created in electronic format. It could therefore be said that for companies to exchange documents in hardcopy or via email and manually file these documents is an anachronism. If a company decides to take advantage of more modern data transfer technology, this is often more a necessity rather than a competitive advantage if the enterprise wants to remain relevant to key customers or suppliers.The aim of the article was to identify the suppliers and customers who would be ideal to implement joint EDI communications with, predict the efficiency and speed of purchasing and sales processes, recommend the broader use of EDI communication integration, evaluate the advantages and disadvantages of implementing EDI, and subsequently propose a suitable EDI cloud solution to integrate with the information system at a metallurgical enterprise.
