{"title":"Re-architecting business infrastructures through global business-to-business electronic commerce","authors":"E. Carayannis, J. Alexander","doi":"10.1109/PICMET.2001.951899","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1109/PICMET.2001.951899","url":null,"abstract":"Summary form only given as follows. Business-to-business electronic commerce (B2BEC) activity worldwide is estimated to grow to several trillions of dollars within the next few years. Already, the increase in B2BEC has had an increasingly large and broad impact on industrial structures and the ways we measure and evaluate such fundamental concepts as risk, the valuation of and return on intangibles such as intellectual capital, brand-related goodwill, and service sector productivity. Major companies across the world are struggling to position themselves to take advantage of this new realm of business opportunity. The future of B2BEC, however, is clouded by challenges in determining global standards in technology, business processes, and government policy. In this paper, we review the evolution and current direction of global B2BEC in several industries and show how firms have used EC as a strategic differentiator in maximizing customer value added. We profile in detail the role of electronic commerce as a strategic enabling, infra-structural, path-breaking and multiuse technology that if properly leveraged, can lead to radical improvements in both quality and productivity in inter-firm trading relationships. We end by identifying best practices in industry and government for accelerating the deployment of electronic commerce, and for making this activity an agent of strategic change in the emerging digital economy.","PeriodicalId":117603,"journal":{"name":"PICMET '01.

A comprehensive viewpoint is taken on what is meant by knowledge driven, embracing more than the new economy, or IT revolution. Japan has been competitive in the old economy, but may be lagging behind in the new economy. The traditional areas of strengths in the old economy is discussed. These strengths are no longer sufficient for meeting mega-competition in the era of the knowledge driven economy. Japanese firms would have to undergo major structural as well as managerial changes in order to face global competition. Japanese corporate weaknesses are linked to the weaknesses in the innovation system. An analysis is made of the weaknesses in the Japanese innovation system such as government policies to strengthen the Science and Technology bases, discussing why they have not been successful. Japan will have to overcome these weaknesses in the innovation system to successfully achieve the transition to the knowledge driven economy.","PeriodicalId":117603,"journal":{"name":"PICMET '01.

With the increasing popularity of extended enterprises, the use of advanced technology has taken over from traditional \"paper-based\" forms of communication and information sharing within and between organisations. This paper describes the results of a preliminary study concerning a product data management (PDM) introduction project in an engineer-to-order (ETO) company operating within an extended enterprise environment. One of the main aims was to formulate an overall plan for the introduction of PDM in the given company while considering the imperatives dictated by the company's strategic intent and the business trends of extended enterprises. To achieve this an investigation of how technology is changing the way in which organisations do business, both as autonomous organisations and as members of extended enterprises, was conducted.","PeriodicalId":117603,"journal":{"name":"PICMET '01.

Globalization of markets, manufacturing, technology and information and intensifying competition accompanied by increased outsourcing, corporate interrelationships, technology convergence and a push toward harmonized standards demand sophisticated and strategic standards management. Once viewed only as the purview of engineers and lawyers, standards management is increasingly recognized as a competitive tool requiring understanding and active input from across the organization and coordination across the supply chain. Yet few appropriate training materials and exist and little has been done to compile cases and tools for corporate and school use in implementing related initiatives. The Kellogg Graduate School of Management in collaboration with the MATI Consortium of 17 leading firms, the American National Standards Institute (ANSI), several other schools, and with partial support from the US Department of Education, is launching a project to address this gap. This paper reports on the issues and challenges involved and what is being learned from best-in-class firms.","PeriodicalId":117603,"journal":{"name":"PICMET '01.
