Red Dot isn't a big company, but the 500-person, Seattle-based supplier to heavy-vehicle manufacturers has complex supply chain communication requirements, says John-Mark Tucker, Red Dot's IT manager. In fact, it was the ability of an ERP suite from Oracle to flexibly handle EDI that was a big factor in helping Oracle land Red Dot as a customer.
Red Dot makes heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) systems and replacement parts for construction vehicles, buses, fire engines, and other heavy vehicles. In searching for a new ERP system, Red Dot looked at offerings from vendors focused on small and midsize companies, but found Oracle's EDI functionality superior.
