The development of information and communication systems, in particular e-commerce systems, is a complex and time intensive task. The development process can be simplified by using reference models. Many reference models for the electronic commerce, such as the model for electronic markets by SCHMID & LINDEMANN (1997) and the OBJECT MANAGEMENT GROUP reference model are known. However, they tend to concentrate on specific aspects of the problem and give insufficient attention to all aspects of good model quality. A number of requirements are important in constructing a reference model as the quality of the construction invariably impacts the quality of the construction invariably impacts the quality of the final model. To determine the quality of a reference model and its construction process an analysis scheme was designed and tested in a case study with a German standardization institution. The practical application of the analysis scheme reveals deficiencies and strengths in some reference modelling processes.
