In the pursuit of enhanced competitiveness organisations are today searching for innovative business models in order to foster economic benefits. In Slovenia, several clusters are being formed, including the Slovenian Transport Logistics Cluster (STLC) as one of the most important. The STLC is currently in the stage of dynamic growth, demanding business model formation and adequate informatisation. The main goal of the paper is to present the informatisation of the STLC, bridging the gap between Supply Chain Management (SCM) and e-Logistics. The STLC's informatisation of is presented in several phases. The first phase involves business modelling of the existing business processes of organisations (AS-IS model). The results of the first phase allow an in-depth view of the STLC that is used in the future in the business model setup. Next, TO-BE processes are created which are to be implemented and supported via informatisation. The result of the informatisation project is revealed to be homogenous and transparent business activity between cluster members. The purposes of the STLC's informatisation are to create a business model, standardise business processes, allow cost cutting and improved business performance, reduce operating times, support asset management, and trace shipments which are the basics of economic competitiveness.
