The Next Generation of Enhanced Integrations to Help Shippers Onboard Faster and Operate Smarter
UPS Supply Chain Solutions® streamlined Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) integration makes it easier than ever for shippers to connect their operations directly with us — onboarding faster and operating more efficiently.
For today’s supply chain leaders, finding technology solutions isn’t optional — it’s the difference between keeping up and falling behind. In global trade and especially in healthcare or retail, time is money. Every delay in booking, compliance or billing slows down operations — and costs shippers real revenue.
That’s why UPS Supply Chain Solutions has reimagined the forwarder-shipper connection with our Enhanced Integrations, making it faster and simpler for shippers to connect directly with us.
Simpler Enhanced Integrations, Stronger Connection with UPS Supply Chain Solutions
Our Enhanced Integrations is the digital link that integrates your systems with ours. It automates bookings, shipment status updates, billing flows and compliance data — eliminating manual re-entry, reducing errors and keeping operations moving at speed.
What’s different now is how easy we’ve made it to get started. Traditional Enhanced Integrations projects could take months and drain IT resources. Our new approach streamlines the process so you can onboard quickly, strengthen your connection with us and operate a more efficient, future-ready supply chain.
Onboarding That Fits Your Business
Every shipper has different needs, so we’ve designed a tiered model to meet you where you are:
- Self-guided onboarding – For teams ready to connect immediately using UPS standard configurations
-
Guided onboarding – For businesses that want some customization with UPS support along the way

White-glove onboarding – For complex enterprises that require a tailored approach and deep connection
