Business Network Management (BNM) helps enterprises managing their trading partner networks by making technical integration, business and social aspects visible within a common Business Network (BN) model that sets them into context to each other. This allows various roles, from the business specialist to the integration expert, to monitor, enrich and setup business processes by collaborating across its contexts. In this paper we propose a common network model for BNM, which features inter-connected business and technical perspectives capturing the complete BN. Since the Business Process Modeling Notation (BPMN) is a well-established standard for describing business process and integration semantics, we define a network-centric BPMN model as graphical notation on UI and as basis for our BN by extending a subset of BPMN to cover both business and integration aspects. We present a novel approach on applying BPMN to BNM and discuss its application to real-world BNs.
