Retail Network
Trading PartnerWabtec EDI is the electronic exchange of manufacturing supply chain documents between Wabtec and its suppliers, covering planning schedules, purchase orders, order changes, acknowledgments, ship notices, and invoices. It enforces strict rail-industry compliance, synchronizing production forecasts and shipment data directly with ERP systems to eliminate manual entry and keep fulfillment aligned with Wabtec's procurement requirements.
Validate every 830 release, 850 order, and 860 change against Wabtec's exact map requirements before transmission.
Sync planning schedules, order changes, and shipment data directly into ERP production and procurement modules.
Maintain stable AS2, VAN, and SFTP connections with continuous monitoring and automatic retry handling.
Few suppliers get a second chance with Wabtec — the rail manufacturing powerhouse whose lineage traces back to George Westinghouse's 1869 air brake breakthrough and whose Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania headquarters orchestrates one of the most demanding vendor compliance programs in the industry. Hand-keyed purchase orders, email-chased 860 change requests, and manually built barcode labels aren't just slow; they're chargebacks in waiting. Wabtec's routing guide expects flawless EDI 830 planning schedules, real-time 850 and 860 responsiveness, and certified AS2, VAN, or SFTP connectivity — and Cogential IT's fully managed cloud EDI delivers all of it without a single line of code from your team. Pre-configured segment mapping, seamless ERP integration, and a proprietary validation engine that screens every document before transmission mean you go live in days, not months — and stay compliant on every shipment.
Most compliance issues happen when production planning and EDI mapping are managed as separate, disconnected workflows.
Release schedules change weekly; we automate version control so production always plans against current quantities.

Wabtec's vendor compliance manual isn't a suggestion — it's a chargeback schedule. Cogential IT's proprietary validation engine screens every outbound document against their exact business rules: segment sequencing on 830 releases, field-level integrity on 850s and 860s, GS1-128 barcode label formats, and branded packing slip requirements for DSV shipments. Errors are flagged with plain-English insights before transmission — not after a compliance deduction hits your invoice. The result: 99.9% data accuracy, first-pass acceptance, and a Zero-Chargeback Guarantee that puts the risk on us, not your margins.
