Abstract

Rapidly changing market demands and increasing competitive pressure cause many businesses decide to collaborate with other businesses, forming what we call a 'networked business'. For the participants in a networked business to be able to promptly react to their customers' needs, they must set up as cornerstone a well-defined collaborative partnering structure. In this paper we discuss the partnering structure of networked businesses and present a framework for its formalization. Using an example, we illustrate that existing approaches for value modeling, roles specification, and responsibilities definition can be used successfully if employed in a unifying way to address this structure concept.
