FAQ

EDI integration cost and delivery

EDI scope and budget

What does an EDI integration cost?

A focused connection for a small partner group often starts around EUR 27,000 excl. VAT after the public cost factor is applied. Message types, partner profiles, ERP changes and operational requirements determine the wider investment.

Which EDI messages should be implemented first?

Purchase orders, confirmations, despatch advice and invoices usually provide the strongest initial case. Process analysis ranks messages by volume, error cost and current manual effort.

When is an API preferable to traditional EDI?

APIs are useful for timely status and master-data queries. EDIFACT, XML and industry formats remain appropriate when trading partners require established standards and dependable B2B processing.

Björn Groenewold – Geschäftsführer Groenewold IT Solutions

Assess your EDI landscape

We review partners, messages, mappings and ERP connectivity.

Mapping, testing and operations

How are different partner formats managed?

A canonical data model separates internal structures from partner-specific mappings. Version control, test cases and defined error channels reduce the effort of later specification changes.

Which tests belong in an EDI rollout?

Mapping, negative, volume, recovery and business end-to-end tests are essential. Automation becomes particularly valuable with many partners or frequent format revisions.

Where is the EDI integration developed?

Groenewold IT delivers Made in Germany integration engineering from Leer. The team combines architecture, ERP experience and direct technical ownership.

Typical pricing models (overview)

Comparison: typical pricing models for software and IT projects
ModelWhen it fitsBudget & flexibilityTypical risks
Fixed price (fixed scope)Clearly defined scope, stable requirements, repeatable delivery.Predictable total cost; little room for change without a change order.Scope creep leads to change orders or quality trade-offs.
Time & MaterialDiscovery, legacy, evolving requirements, or close collaboration.Maximum flexibility; budget transparent via hourly or daily rates.Without prioritisation, effort can grow—backlog and reviews matter.
Retainer / maintenance packageOngoing operations, updates, small features, and support.Agreed capacity per month; predictable follow-on cost.Large changes may still need a separate estimate.
Hybrid (milestone + T&M)MVP or phased releases with clear go-lives, then iterate.Core delivery fixed price; extensions on a time-and-materials basis.Define contractually what is in scope vs. extra work.

Calculators on this page provide indicative ranges; we choose the right model with you based on risk, scope, and planning horizon.
