EDIWheel´s objectives

• The EDIWheel philosophy is based on a common

understanding of tyre business economics. It´s important to interpret the content and to use the processes in the same way.

• The main objective of the EDIWHEEL is to improve

the business not to develop software tools.

• EDIWheel supports article and price information

and the business chain beginning with inquiries to quote, orders and confirmation, ending with delivery notes and invoices. Additionally some tracking information and status reports.

• EDIWheel offers the common message structures

and the content , but it does not restrict the design

• f an IT application.

EDIWheel : European Standard

• EDIWheel is accepted in more 10

than European markets. AT, BE, CH, CZ, DE, DK, FR, NO, FI, SE, ...

• Ca. 10,000 tyre dealer depots are

participating in these business processes.

• In 2008 alone in Germany, more

than 8 million tyres were ordered by EDIWheel messages. The market share is different, from less than 10 % to more than 70 %

• No EDIWheel at all
• Very few EDIWheel customers
• Some car dealer channels but not

much tyre dealers

• Mix of car dealer and tyre dealers

but far from the potential

• Very strong roll out
