Lakshmi Narayana

I am an experienced EDI Specialist with a strong background in implementing and optimizing EDI systems, particularly within healthcare. My expertise lies in handling HIPAA-compliant transactions like 837 (Claims) and 835 (Remittance Advice), ensuring seamless integration across external and internal systems. Through the use of industry-standard tools like Cleo Integration Cloud and IBM Sterling Integrator, I streamline workflows, enhance data accuracy, and automate processes to drive operational efficiency. I excel in troubleshooting, identifying system bottlenecks, and implementing secure, compliant data transfer protocols. My leadership experience includes guiding junior analysts, creating comprehensive documentation, and improving team efficiency through training. Focused on continuous process improvement, I leverage technical expertise in SQL, Python, and .NET to optimize system performance, minimize errors, and deliver projects successfully from design to go-live.

EDI Analyst at Mahindra Logistics, I played a key role in optimizing and managing EDI mappings and integrations based on X12 standards (850, 856, 810), which facilitated smooth data transfer across logistics systems. I was responsible for building secure communication profiles (AS2, FTP, SFTP) and configuring scalable integration pipelines using Cleo Integration Cloud, significantly reducing manual efforts and improving operational efficiency. My contributions included automating workflows, creating reusable test cases, and conducting regression testing to ensure the accuracy of data exchanges. Additionally, I worked closely with cross-functional teams to resolve critical issues related to purchase order (850) and ASN (856) processing. Through SQL-based reporting and improved error alerting systems, I helped monitor EDI transactions more effectively, ensuring greater data accuracy and operational resilience.
