Challenge

In an effort to streamline the procure-to-payment processes, Andrew’s customer requested they accept and process Purchase Card payments. The customer also needed Level-3 line item detail. Prior to this request, Andrew did not have a process in place to process Purchase Cards or handle Level-3 information. Level-3 contains more detailed information about items purchases, such as Item Part Number, Description, Quantity, Unit of Measure, etc.

In addition to meeting the customer’s Level-3 Purchase Card needs, Andrew also required host-to-host real-time payment processing and authorizations via an SSL connection on the Internet, which offer the speed of a dedicated frame-relay telecommunications line without the cost.

Solution

After issuing a Request for Proposal (RFP), 3Delta Systems® quickly surfaced as the best solution to deliver all requirments, including Level-3 detail and host-to-host payments. Andrew leverages 3DSI’s EC-Zone® and EC-Linx® products to meet all its Purchase Card processing needs.

“3DSI’s solutions are secure, scalable and easy to implement,” explains Paul Sengstock, Andrew Corporation Purchasing Director. “EC-Zone offers great reporting capabilities and EC-Linx offered easy integration with our existing systems.”

Results

Andrew Corporation received immediate benefits from the services, including:

  • Faster payments. The new payment system eliminated the need to send out paper invoices and improved account reconciliation
  • Excellent customer service. The 3DSI system met the processing needs of its customer base
  • Level-3 data. Level-3 line item detail lets customers reconcile their accounts quickly, easily and at the department-level
  • Reduced costs. The improved interchange qualification and cost avoidance from by-passing solutions that require dedicated frame-relay circuits
