CROSS-BORDER BUSINESS INTERMEDIATION THROUGH ELECTRONIC SEAMLESS SERVICES

Objective

Business enterprises face significant obstacles in their quest to interact with public administrations and governments across Europe. Up to now, all related efforts to address this problem have focused on the national level and have not considered the cross-border processes. The CB-BUSINESS project aims to facilitate cross-border business-to-government interactions. The overall objective is to develop, test and validate an intermediation scheme that integrates the services offered by government, national and regional administration agencies as well as commerce and industry chambers of EU and Enlargement countries in the context of cross-border processes.

OBJECTIVES
The overall objective of CB-BUSINESS is to develop, test and validate an intermediation scheme that integrates the services offered by government, national and regional administration schemes as well as Commerce and Industry Chambers of EU and Enlargement Countries in the context of cross-border processes. Specifically, CB-BUSINESS aims to:1. Design a unified true ""one-stop shop"" service model for business-to-government interactions.2. Develop a WWW-based intermediation hub that implements this service model and will act as a pivotal point of contact for EU and Enlargement Country enterprises.3. Prove the validity of the service model and pilot-test the www-based intermediation hub in various specific cases that strengthen European integration.

DESCRIPTION OF WORK
The work to be done in the CB-BUSINESS project is divided into seven workpackages:
1. Process and Requirements Analysis, concerned with identifying and analysing a concrete set of cross-border processes as well as related end-user requirements;
2. Architectural Specifications, aiming at specifying all functional and technical architecture aspects of the CB-BUSINESS demonstrator;
3. Technical Solution Development, including technical design of the CB-BUSINESS system, development of applications, deployment of system infrastructure and technical integration of the CB-BUSINESS system prototype;
4. Process Integration, dedicated to specifying standard cross-border process workflows with associated quality / performance indicators, and integrating them with the CB-BUSINESS system prototype into the CB-BUSINESS operational demonstrator;
5. Evolving Architectural Provisions, concentrating on the formulation of architectural provisions, process workflow ontology and operational interfaces;
6. Dissemination and Exploitation of the CB-BUSINESS project results;
7. Project Management, involving both the administrative and technical management of the project.
