EbXML as Developing Country E-Business Strategy Proposal

Abstract - Developing countries, such as Croatia, have 90% or more of their economy in SME (small and medium-sized enterprises). If these countries want to develop further, they have to ensure smooth transition of economy towards e-business. In other words, they must adopt e-business framework and develop necessary infrastructure. Having acknowledged the importance of e-business, we are carrying out the research aimed primarily at defining the strategy for implementation of e-business in Croatia. We are focused on e-business frameworks and conceptual prerequisites for building necessary e-business infrastructure. Based on the results, we adopted the ebXML standard as a technical infrastructure backbone. We have found that EbXML as a standard for electronic business offers the solutions to variety of recorded problems. This paper explains main features of ebXML standard. Ideas and strategies as well as wider perspective of ebXML goals will explain opportunities concerning developing countries. Research elaborations on ebXML, as a perspective framework will be presented, as well as results of a pilot project on ebXML functionality.
