Abstract

As the global market becomes prevalent, enterprises need to cooperate with partners in the supply chain. After a collaborative alliance is formed, companies share mutual information or resources in order to increase their core competence. Their business collaborative model (BCM) and strategies of an alliance belong to collaborative commerce which requires collaborative management (CM) disciplines. Therefore, the aims of this paper are to study BCMs and to propose the taxonomy and attributes of these BCMs. Enablers of the CM projects are also analyzed and discussed through a field study approach for future reference.
