Partner Onboarding
Traditional B2B and EDI partner onboarding is slow, fragmented, and highly manual, typically taking 6-12 weeks, which defers revenue. The friction of relying on scarce EDI specialists, brittle custom integrations, and hidden soft costs creates a high Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) and erodes partner trust. This not only delays revenue but also prevents organizations from scaling their ecosystems and puts them at a competitive disadvantage.
The Challenge: Legacy Partner Onboarding is Broken
For supply chain leaders, the barriers to efficient onboarding are both technical and operational
Technical Fragmentation
There are multiple EDI standards and protocols, mixed data formats, and each new partner requires new mapping, testing, and risk assessment
Human Bottleneck
Onboarding is dependent on scarce, high-cost specialists
Legacy System Paralysis
Existing ERPs are not built for modern integration, and brittle, costly custom code or middleware create technical debt that slows modernization
