In this episode of EDI on the Street, we dig into one of the most overlooked challenges in modern B2B operations: the reality that “standard EDI” almost never exists in the real world. Through sharp insights and real-world case stories, they unpack why non-standard integrations are now the norm, why most failed EDI projects come from providers who can’t handle exceptions, and how the right partner can turn complexity into reliability.

From hybrid EDI/API workflows to retailers with “creative” ASN formats, the hosts explore the quirks, pitfalls, and hidden costs companies face — and how an experienced integration provider navigates them with ease. This episode offers a practical, no-nonsense look at why choosing a partner who thrives in messy, non-standard environments can make the difference between operational chaos and supply chain confidence.
