At this week's
Pub, Rodney J. Heisterberg will discuss Collaborative Commerce (cCommerce)
as a strategy for the next stage of eBusiness evolution. cCommerce
business practices enable trading partners to create, manage, and
use data in a shared environment to design, build, and support products
throughout their lifecycle, creating a value chain that forms a
virtual enterprise. As cCommerce evolves as the mainstream
eBusiness strategy for effective value chain management, the re-engineering
of management decision-making processes becomes the critical success
factor for enterprise profitability and growth in the 21st century.
In addition, sustainable competitive advantage is realized
by the adoption of cCommerce strategies and business models.
