UDEX provides Product Data Quality (PDQ) solutions. UDEX provides software and services that enable the global retail industry to continuously manage accurate product information throughout the supply chain.

On November 20, 2006, GXS, provider of business-to-business (B2B) e-commerce solutions, announced that it has acquired UDEX. The UDEX acquisition builds on GXS’ current offerings in data synchronization, enabling GXS to validate and certify the accuracy of product and packaging data that is exchanged between trading partners. GXS plans to make the UDEX solution for product data quality a component of its Data Pool Manager solution for creating and supporting country data pools. The solution will be known as UDEX, A GXS Service. GXS’ data synchronization solutions are part of the GXS Trading Grid platform, a global B2B e-commerce and integration platform that supports the creation and adoption of on-demand supply chain management solutions.

Product Data Quality (PDQ)

The acronym UDEX is defined Universal Descriptor Exchange. The principal benefit of PDQ is to improve retail industry performance by reducing out-of-stock merchandise, improving the consumers experience and thus increase corporate profitability. Additionally insufficient PDQ disrupts the efficiencies in new technologies such as Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) and retail supply chain initiatives such as the Global Data Synchronization Network that assume product data is accurately described and well defined.

Locations

GXS is headquartered in Gaithersburg, MD with offices around the world, including the UK, Australia, Japan, China and more.

UDEX is headquartered in the UK in Newport, Wales.

Background

In November 2006, the company was acquired by GXS, who will continue to operate the service as UDEX, A GXS Service.
