Case Studys and the EDI Industry Group
Major Australian EDI users include:
- All of the motor vehicle manufacturers and most of their
component suppliers
- A large proportion of government departments, both state and
federal.
and hundreds of others...
The Australian EDI industry body is "Electronic Commerce
Australia", now integrated into Tradegate Australia.
Their brief also covers other forms of electronic messaging such
as:
- Interpersonal (human-human) computer messaging, or electronic
mail and forms-based email.
- Human to computer messaging. Typical examples of this include
one-way email, or automatic computer generation and transmission of
FAX messages, called C-Fax by EDICA.
NB: EDICA also stated (in 1994) Many organisations,
particularly those with over $100 million in sales have already
begun full scale trading partner initiation programs. Very few have
achieved successes which they would consider to be commensurate
with the time, effort and money expended

There are lots of Web sites with information about EDI. For
example:
Some EDI Examples
There's a newsgroup for Electronic
Commerce as well, but it doesn't seem to have much useful
information -- lots of advertisements though!
