INTER-ORGANIZATION INFORMATION SYSTEMS
Background - Trends for Collaboration in international trade:
Advanced economies have developed alternative concepts of highly
specialised collaborative platforms to establish collaboration and
information sharing between the different stakeholders of the
international supply chain. These inter-organization information
exchange and collaboration platforms have become crucial for the
competitiveness and compliance of trade esp in the highly developed
economies.
The role of inter-organization collaboration platforms features
interoperability among different inter-organization collaboration and
information exchange platforms.
The United Nations is proposing a framework that provide an
environment in which different Inter-organization Information Systems
exchange and collaborate.
