Tradiant bridges the transportation execution gap in global supply chain management
About Tradiant
Tradiant, founded in 1998 in Alameda, California by Aaron Sasson, John Urban, Greg Johnsen, and Anil Nair, initially focused on automating international trade documentation and compliance. The company rebranded to GT Nexus in 2001, shifting its strategic focus to developing a cloud-based, multi-enterprise collaboration platform for global supply chains. This platform connects manufacturers, retailers, logistics providers, carriers, and financial institutions, providing a unified system for managing global trade and logistics. The business operates on a network model, where participants can connect once to communicate and transact with all other partners on the platform, streamlining processes like order management, shipment tracking, and financial settlement.
Read full description
A significant milestone occurred in 2013 when GT Nexus merged with TradeCard, a company specializing in compliance and payment platforms. This merger substantially expanded the platform's capabilities, particularly in the order-to-cash cycle and supply chain finance, facilitating billions in payments between buyers and suppliers. The integrated entity operated as the world's largest cloud-based business network for global trade. In September 2015, the enterprise software company Infor acquired GT Nexus for $675 million, aiming to create a global commerce cloud by combining Infor's ERP expertise with the GT Nexus network. Following the acquisition, GT Nexus became a business unit within Infor, eventually being known as Infor Nexus.
The platform serves a diverse client base across industries such as retail, apparel, automotive, pharmaceuticals, and industrial manufacturing. It provides a comprehensive solution for direct procurement by creating a single version of the truth for purchase orders that is shared across all partners in the supply chain. This allows for unprecedented visibility and coordination, enabling companies to monitor goods in production and in transit, manage order changes, and handle customs clearance more efficiently. Key features include global order management, logistics and shipment tracking, trade documentation, and integrated financial services. The platform is particularly suited for large organizations with complex, global supply chains.
