Dedicated vertical teams in place with deep ERP/B2B Systems Integration expertise.
L&T Infotech, one of the world’s top-ranked global IT services providers, has teamed with SEEBURGER Inc. for a strategic partnership, in order to increase U.S. implementation resources for the latter’s electronic data interchange (EDI) and business-to-business integration (B2B) software. With this, L&T Infotech would provide both sales and deployment services for the SEEBURGER Business Integration Server and associated solutions.
L&T Infotech has nine U.S. offices with dedicated teams in key industry sectors with EDI/B2B needs, including technology, manufacturing, finance, healthcare and energy/petrochemicals. The firm has extensive SAP and Oracle expertise as well as B2B systems integration experience, making it possible to support customers who are deploying the SEEBURGER platform in conjunction with an update, migration or implementation of a new ERP system.
The relationship grew out of a joint implementation for a major U.S. technology distribution company that deployed SEEBURGER Solutions to automate supply chain communications with its trading partners. The two firms divided architecture, deployment and map development responsibilities for that project, enabling L&T Infotech to develop expertise in SEEBURGER implementations.
“Much of our systems integration business is ERP-focused, and many of our ERP customers need B2B integration as well,” said Mr. Sudip Banerjee, Chief Executive Officer, L&T Infotech. “Adding SEEBURGER technology to our portfolio will allow us to serve that need with what we consider as a robust, advanced and scalable EDI/B2B platform.”
“Partnering with L&T Infotech expands our services capacity and provides an additional expert implementation resource for our U.S. customers, particularly for crossover deployments involving tandem ERP/EDI upgrades,” said Wesley Thompson, VP of Business Development, SEEBURGER Inc. “The relationship will enable customers to source both technologies from a single firm to ensure seamless integration and full accountability.”
