E-Business to Business Review

Paper Summary:

A report on B2B (Business - to - Business) models. Reviews the web sites of merisel.com, kellypaper.com and intellibusiness.com. Evaluates how these sites are set up for value-added suppliers and other business users. With the use of well-planned business models, many B2Bs have jumped on to the information technology train and are experiencing improved profit margins through supply chain efficiencies-from purchasing, to manufacturing and selling. In addition to simply sharing forecasts and products, successful B2Bs work jointly to provide greater supply chain services, and ultimately larger profits for all partners involved.

From the Paper:

"Although business-to-business activities occur both offline and online, the acronym B2B has come to be known and described as the online version. There is much hype given to the potential size of B2B markets and how much bigger it may get than the online business-to-consumer (B2C) world. The gravy train that drives these expectations is the hopes that information technology (IT) will deliver an inflection point in productivity and economic growth. With the use of well-planned business models, many B2Bs have jumped on this gravy train and are experiencing improved profit margins through supply chain efficiencies-from purchasing, to manufacturing and selling.
