Abstract
Recently, there were many approaches and opinions discussing efficiency and usage of EDI and, additionally, whether EDI is still up-to-date or companies require substituting it with another platform instead. Based on these papers and findings, we conducted a survey to study the current status of EDI usage in the Czech Republic. Findings from our survey helped us to understand the relation between EDI adoption and eventual EDI substitution with regard to the size of companies in the Czech Republic. This paper is based mainly on the research of Czech and foreign literature and survey conducted in the particular areas of business in the Czech Republic. The main goal of this paper is to find out the current situation of EDI usage according to company sizes and a potential for EDI substitution in the Czech Republic. This paper is considered an extension of a research about EDI adoption according to industries and logistics model implementation in the Czech Republic.
