DiCentral Corporation, a leading innovator in supply chain management solutions and B2B integration,  announced a technology partnership agreement with Nippon Information and Communication (NI+C), a leading information technology services firm headquartered in Tokyo, Japan. The partnership will enable NI+C to enhance their current EDI capabilities to accommodate the growing demand for outsourced B2B integration and supply chain automation.

NI+C was established in 1985 as a joint venture between NTT Corporation and IBM Japan, and has a long and successful history of assisting global companies that need to automate supply chain collaboration. Under this new partnership, DiCentral’s global supply chain management solutions will be deployed in Japan and the services enabled by this technology will be sold by NI+C under their brand. The partnership comes at a pivotal time, as reliance on electronic ecosystems forces companies to adapt new processes and quickly integrate connections within their supply chain.
