“…CIDX (Chemical Industry Data Exchange), cXML (Commerce XML), ebXML (Electronic Business XML), OAGIS (Open Applications Group Integration Specification), papiNet, PIDX (Petroleum Industry Data Exchange), RosettaNet, UBL (Universal Business Language) and xCBL (XML Common Business Library) represent only a selection of some of the existing e-Business frameworks. Nurmilaakso et al [7] have published an analytical framework to analyze and compare these with regard to granularity and adaptability of process and data standardization, industry-focus and drivers of the framework as well as characteristics such as formality and openness of the related standardization organization. According to this analysis, most frameworks still focus on standardizing business documents, whereas a common understanding of inter-organizational processes is still evolving.…”

In this work, we propose a novel e-Business architecture that takes into account the specific needs of small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and present a modeldriven and highly adaptive approach that facilitates the automation of cross-organizational business processes. Parts of the ebXML standard are leveraged for the initialization of business relationships and for ensuring semantic interoperability, while the Web Services stack builds the technical foundation for the actual execution of transactions. The envisioned architecture comprises active, Web Services-based adapters at the client side to shield technical peculiarities of local IT installations and to ensure seamless collaboration of the diverse stakeholders, but still relies on a central server that enables users to register themselves, to model supported processes and data as well as to negotiate the exact conditions of an electronic business relationship. The resulting approach can thus be considered as hybrid regarding the degree of centralism involved and with respect to the combination of the Web services stack and the ebXML standard as an infrastructural foundation.

“…However, e-business frameworks are necessary to provide specifications on what information is exchanged, how the information is exchanged and when the information is exchanged [32]. This concerns the business documents to be exchanged and the inter-organizational collaboration activities, which provide the choreography of the business documents and the services used to exchange this information.…”

Innovative eCustoms solutions play an important role in the pan-European eGovernment strategy. The underlying premise is interoperability postulating a common understanding of processes, services and the documents that are exchanged between business and government organizations as well as between governmental authorities of different EU member states. This article provides a stringent approach for deriving documents and services from current eCustoms procedures based on the UN/CEFACT standards framework and for embedding these in a service oriented architecture for Collaborative eGovernment. In doing so, we put a special focus on document engineering by applying the UN/CEFACT Core Component Technical Specification (CCTS), a conceptual framework for modeling document components in a syntax neutral and technology independent manner. By relying on CCTS, we want to tackle the challenge of handling different document configurations imposed by divergent national legislations, different customs procedures (export, import, transit, and excise) and different industries. The resulting conceptual model is transferred to XML schema serving as a basis for Web Services design and implementation. These Web Services are designed for seamless interoperable exchange of electronic customs documents between heterogeneous IS landscapes both on business and government side. Beyond the theoretical deduction practical insights are gained from a European research project implementing the artifacts proposed in a real-world setting.
