IDEA, formally the Industry Data Exchange Association, is a technology service provider and standards body for the electrical industry. It supports thousands of manufacturers and distributors in optimizing day-to-day operations by offering applications that connect the supply chain and streamline business processes. The organization is headquartered in Arlington, Virginia, and traces its founding to 1998 through leadership from the National Electrical Manufacturers Association and the National Association of Electrical Distributors. Beyond the electrical sector, its applications also serve vertical markets such as industrial, retail, and consumer-packaged goods. In May 2026, IDEA announced a co-investment with NAED and Pull Logic to develop an industry-owned middleware solution called Where's My Stuff? to improve real-time visibility into equipment orders across the electrical supply chain. This initiative reflects ongoing efforts to standardize data exchange and enhance supply-chain collaboration within its market.
