A new electronic commerce service focused on the business-to-business and logistics environments has been launched by Icarus e-Com. The services are targeted at manufacturing, distribution and freight companies who wish to trade electronically. The services, based on Internet and electronic data interchange (EDI) technologies, will facilitate the use of sophisticated logistics, supply chain management and just-in-time manufacturing systems by Irish industry. Icarus says small and medium enterprises (SMEs) can now implement sophisticated e-commerce and logistics information systems.
