Electronic Data Interchange White Papers

Evolving to Collaborative Commerce

Overview While B2B certainly provides opportunities for cost savings and other advantages, the value of B2B initiatives is diminished if there is no integration to internal back-end systems, such as ERP. The end game for any B2B initiative is end-to-end value chain visibility and integration. This whitepaper is organized into two major sections: the first section addresses the internal problem domain of value chain integration in the context of B2B and the second addresses that of external value chain integration. The goal of this whitepaper is to clarify each of the three B2B strategies mentioned earlier, discuss the technological barriers to success, and explain how the SeeBeyond eBusiness Integration Suite is uniquely suited to providing the most comprehensive solution for enterprise-wide B2B initiatives.
