| About ABX Logistics |
ABX LOGISTICS is a global freight forwarder active in more than 30 different countries around the world.
The group is made of approximately 65 transportation companies, connected to thousands of customers using
different electronic documents, formats and communication protocols.

| Project Description |
Every country was running its own central operational information system. The information contained within each system is not identical.
Although the systems do send information to each other and towards the customers, no single data repository for the group existed.
To counter the dispersed information, CODit has managed both technical and project management tasks including business re-enginering in order to built and implement a central Message Broker System based on Microsoft Biztalk Server 2004.
This central hub connects all ABX LOGISTICS-companies and enables reliable document exchange between them. Moreover, the message broker offers a central repository creating coherent and uniform data storage for all information exchanged. On top of the message broker a Customer Communication HUB is being implemented (Based on Microsoft Biztalk Server 2004).
This CC HUB provides ABX LOGISTICS with a worldwide EDI software standard that can be developed and maintained in a centralized manner, independent of each country. It is a single point of EDI contact for all customers in order to streamline and simplify their internal and external EDI communication, including format transformation.
Recently CODit has migrated the BizTalk 2004 platform to BizTalk 2006 R2 with COvast 2006, which is the most recent version of both products. This allows ABX Logistics, thanks to the latest technology, to be agile
and adapt its processes to the market requirements
