MI COMMITTEE STRATEGIC STATEMENT
The strategic goal of the MI committee will be to continue our active role in supporting the members by extending the use of technology through initiatives such as software standards, webinars, articles, and web based training. We will continue to be acting liaison between the software companies and vendors in order to develop solutions that will help to increase or enhance membership productivity through the use, enhancement, or integration of technology solutions.
The E-Commerce "Vision" of GAWDA is that the members and their trading partners will complete their daily transactions for both the physical flow of product and the informational flow of data through the use of time and cost saving electronic media and equipment. The result of this effort will be increased member productivity, enhanced responsiveness to the customer, and the development of a core competency that will provide members a long-term competitive advantage.
