Bare Ground Solutions Case Study
Bare Ground Background
For over two decades, Bare Ground has been using the most creative concepts to protect people and property without causing harm to the environment or animals that live in it. Bare Ground began with a non-corrosive liquid de-icer product and has expanded into dog scents, garlic animal repellents, and driveway sealants, among other helpful products. Once a winter company, now Bare Ground makes every season more bareable!
Critical Point
Bare Ground was growing, with multiple sales channels in both dot-com and brick & mortar.
Challenge
Bare Ground was working simultaneously with six different methods and formats, incorporating several large EDI companies at the same time. They needed to consolidate their supply chain communication, seeking to use one portal to handle all their EDI and data needs.
