Business-to-Business (B2B)
Techniques and technologies are in now in place which enable organisations to communicate
with their customers and suppliers via automated, usually electronic, processes.
In it's simplest form this might be the provision of an 'extranet' - an internet presence
provided to a known set of consumers - allowing you to monitor order progress from a supplier
or for a customer to use an organisations knowledge base for problem resolution. Another
approach might be to publish a set of core services which suppliers or consumers can embed
in their own systems to facilitate direct communication with your systems.
The automation of business interactions reduces the cycle time for completion with an
associated reduction in transaction cost. The requirement though, it that the interfaces, or
services, provided are commonly understood, offer agreed behaviour and are secure.
