iTradeNetwork plays a vital role in helping Sysco suppliers efficiently comply with FSMA 204 regulations, ensuring traceability and safety across the food supply chain. Our partnership with Sysco, spanning over 20 years, has led to iTradeNetwork being selected as their preferred vendor for electronic trading.
To foster collaboration between Sysco and its suppliers, Sysco aims to enhance procurement processes by leveraging iTradeNetwork's Order Management Solution (OMS) for electronic trading.
Suppliers can comply with FSMA 204 requirements by sending the required traceability data elements for tracing food products through iTradeNetwork, allowing for the quick identification and resolution of any potential issues.
The benefits of using iTradeNetwork's OMS include:
- Suppliers can trade faster, get paid quicker, with powerful analytics to make meaningful decisions about your supply chain.
- The platform is easy to use and works with other systems.
- Efficient handling of palletized Advanced Shipping Notices (ASNs), helping suppliers meet FSMA 204 requirements.
- iTradeNetwork helps suppliers improve data quality and follow GS1 and FDA rules.
- Digital suppliers are preferred for accurate and efficient processes in the supply chain.
- Access to a comprehensive and user-friendly platform.
iTradeNetwork offers a unified platform for suppliers to efficiently manage electronic trading activities, such as PO submissions, revisions, confirmations, ASNs, and invoicing. This facilitates smooth communication and collaboration between suppliers and Sysco, improving efficiency and accuracy in supply chain transactions. Suppliers can connect directly by integrating their systems with iTrade or using the OMS platform. Both solutions are easy to use and help suppliers manage their orders while meeting Sysco’s needs.
The electronic trading documents included with iTradeNetwork include the following:
- Purchase Orders (POs)
- PO revisions

Whether you integrate your system or utilize the platform directly, iTradeNetwork ensures you have the tools and support needed to meet Sysco's requirements and optimize your trading experience.
