15 Years Of Excellence In Supply Chain Software

Since 1998, ecVision has provided leading edge software platforms to companies in the apparel and footwear industry around the globe. The company started out as an Electronic Data Interchange (EDI ) provider for retailers and big-name brands such as JC Penney, Limited Brands, Nordstrom and Gap; connecting its vendors and factories to their sourcing teams. In those early days, online communications, standardization, and the automation of business practices differentiated ecVision from its competitors.

It has since expanded from its original hub-and-spoke system for logistics and customs document generation. Today, ecVision’s mission is to streamline processes within the supply chain, from innovation to delivery, through its cloud-based collaboration platform called ecVision Suite. Realizing the pivotal role technology plays in retail processes, ecVision successfully focuses its technology expertise on developing innovative software solutions that facilitate secure international communication, establishes a common collaborative platform, and manages day-to-day business functionality for companies within the soft line vertical markets.

ecVision continues to play an important part of minimizing costs and risks for its customers while increasing speed to market and agility. Making these difficult tasks during the commercialization process easier to execute allows leading brands and retailers in the apparel and footwear industry to develop their distinction and to achieve a reputation as a trusted brand in this competitive retail marketplace. Companies utilize ecVision’s solutions to improve communication, create and enhance visibility, and strengthen collaboration with every link in the trading party network.

“ecVision sets itself apart from its competitors by having the strongest cloud-based supply chain platform and in three other primary ways: technology infrastructure, corporate structure, and a diversified supplier network throughout the world,” says Thomas K. Ng, CEO of ecVision. With leading brands and retailers utilizing ecVision Suite and over 22,000 factories and suppliers within their network, customers successfully improve their business agility, overcome market challenges, automate trade and logistics workflows, and reach new levels of operational efficiency.
