| Web definitions refer to B2B
as an acronym for the legal term "business
to business" and add that B2B
applications are used by those companies that are
in the business of marketing and selling goods and
services exclusively to other businesses, instead
of to the consuming public”. In other words,
the term is used exclusively in connection with
e-commerce and advertising, where one business targets
another, instead of targeting consumers.
Making business applications communicate across
corporate boundaries can be extremely complicated,
if not in the right hands. You are fortunate,
if you’ve found us!
Are you a trade house planning a public Internet
marketplace or a private online exchange? Or are
you planning an electronic purchasing center for
your corporate website? Whatever be the case,
you would need an efficient e-commerce environment
that would in turn reduce the cost for buyers,
suppliers and your own organization.
With today’s cost effective business-to-business
e-commerce solutions,
it has been easy for customers to have web access
to product information and availability, order
status and history, account information.
However, to have a totally flexible B2B e-commerce
environment, site operators must have full control
over product content, product management, inventory,
order fulfillment and shipping.
