Overview

Crossfire is a managed EDI and API integration service that automates the electronic exchange of supply chain documents and data between business systems and trading partners. It is delivered by Crossfire as a specialist integration division of Sandfield, a long-established New Zealand technology company, and serves customers globally with projects across more than 30 countries.

The service is primarily fully managed: the Crossfire team handles setup, mapping, maintenance and monitoring so customers don't need in-house EDI expertise, though an optional self-service path with built-in no-code mapping tools is also available. Technically it supports any-to-any data mapping across standards such as EDIFACT, ANSI X12, XML and JSON, and transmission via AS2, SFTP and HTTPS APIs, with pre-existing connections to a network of over 1,000 partners including major retailers like Woolworths and Walmart.

Crossfire emphasizes reliability and security, running on AWS infrastructure with proactive 24/7 monitoring, a 99.99% uptime target, ISO 27001 certification and end-to-end encryption. It provides pre-built integrations to ERPs including NetSuite, Microsoft Dynamics and inventory platforms such as Unleashed.
