Digital Data Exchange (DDEX) is an international standards-setting organisation that was formed in 2006[1] to develop standards that enable companies to communicate information along the digital supply chain more efficiently[2] by:
- Developing standard message and file formats (XML or flat-file)
- Developing choreographies for specific business transactions
- Developing communication protocols (SFTP or based on web services)
- Working with industry bodies to create a more efficient supply chain.
