What is Norfolk Southern EDI?

Norfolk Southern EDI is the electronic data interchange framework that enables logistics and transportation suppliers to exchange load tenders, shipment statuses, freight invoices, and payment remittances directly with Norfolk Southern’s systems. It standardizes X12 document flows for carriers, ensuring compliance and efficient freight movement, financial settlement, and real-time visibility across supply chain partners.
