Books and Publishing
Customers demand instant access to the books of their choice, whether electronic or traditionally bound.
By integrating multiple distributors and publishers systems Atlas’ eXchange and EDI solutions help you to meet your customers demands quickly and securely.
The operating efficiencies that Atlas solutions deliver are critical during the initial high volume of sales in order to ensure that your pricing is competitive and margin protected. Subsequently, during the long tail period, the integration Atlas provides enables you to choose the best route of supply for your customer.
We fully comply with the Book Industry Communication (BIC) e4books accreditation scheme, a valuable element of the industry’s efforts to ensure that all trading partners are communicating orders, invoices, credits, delivery notes, acknowledgements and other business critical information electronically.
In addition to the benefits enjoyed by many sectors using ebusiness solutions, for the book and publishing sector a key advantage is the more effective use of storage space and more efficient stock handling, with reduced warehouse and storage costs, reduced administration costs, and shorter business lead times.
Whether you are a publisher, distributor or retailer, Atlas is well placed to provide your ebusiness solution.
