Then for integrating the ribbed area, it can be good to make an extended sheet, and cut away the excess rather than trying to make surfaces that try to hug the final boundary directly.

So like here using sweep:





Then to cut that you can use Trim, or for booleans there is a trick where you can select faces on an object and the boolean will only try to cut with those.

So if you select these 2 interior faces:



and also the ribbed sweep you can then do boolean union and it will only cut with those interior faces.

it will leave behind the ribbed piece and an interior piece, delete the interior piece:


And join the ribbed piece with the orange to make a closed solid:
