• Direct EDI Connection
  If an evaluation of GHX results in the need for another solution, BARD will accommodate a direct EDI set up.  We support AS2 and secure FTP communications protocol using ANSI x12 version 4010.  We will need a customer technical resource assigned to work with our Corp EDI team  regarding special EDI requirements and testing.

Each option includes personalized service from a seasoned BARD representative to assist in making the transition to electronic as seamless as possible.  This includes a single point of contact to determine BARD ship to account numbers, cleaning up your vendor and item master files, and post production utilization follow-up.
