Cindy,
I agree with what you are getting at that some organizations look at EDI as a 'project' and don't realize there are many parts of an organization that can use EDI.   I was at a EDI user group meeting years ago when a project manager for a major retailer made the comment that her manager had asked when her 'EDI project' would be completed.  This company is now a leader in the retail industry with EDI.
The real success stories from EDI are from organizations that realize automation is an ongoing process not a project.

Almost all my customers are EDI enabled....but not for the application I want to send!  My customers are trucking companies.  They are capable of doing transactions for shipping information, but they are not capable, or interested, in my fuel invoice to their payables system.  

You should keep this perspective in mind when gathering the information.
