  • The Value of E-Procurement Models in B2b Exchanges - an Australian Experience
    THE VALUE OF E-PROCUREMENT MODELS IN B2B EXCHANGES - AN AUSTRALIAN EXPERIENCE DOUGLAS THOMSON and MOHINI SINGH School ofBusiness Information Technology, RMIT University, Australia Abstract: This paper presents a theoretical e-procurement model that was developed for a large multinational Australian corporate as a business plan as the company moves from traditional paper and EDI based processes to e-procurement. The model provides a framework for optimising e-procurement processes while enhancing interrelationships between buyers and sellers. The multi­ disciplinary framework is based on value propositions specific to a single corporate, or to a buyer consortium using e-markets to facilitate B2B exchanges. The e-markets that facilitated the B2B exchanges or that were set up to facilitate the B2B exchanges comprised many founding shareholder enterprises, some of whom are both buyers and sellers in the B2B exchange arena. The impact of the model on e-procurement, the role of e-markets and resulting issues after implementation are discussed in this paper. The values of e-procurement models in B2B exchanges have also been highlighted. The model presented in this paper provides the framework for optimising these systems and processes and their relationships using e-enablement of the procurement process. 1. INTRODUCTION Corporates around the world are implementing e-business, and are looking for guidance as to how this may be best achieved. Australian businesses have variously considered the adoption of the Internet as a pervasive tool for communication, research and as a medium of business. These changes have created competitive global pressures which are intense, but are aided by an improved ability to cope with complexity through use of The original version of this chapter was revised: The copyright line was incorrect.

November 2000 Notice: The information contained in this document is intended to provide an overview of the current situation in e-markets, as it affects the copper industry. This paper is provided for reference purposes only. References to sites, companies, and agencies are for information purposes only. ICSG INFO-CIRCULAR November 2000 How are e-Marketplaces Changing the Copper Industry Supply Chain Infrastructure? 1. Background ICSG's objective is to increase copper market transparency and promote international discussions and cooperation on issues related to copper. The purpose of this info-circular is to pool information together to assist members to better understand the changing copper industry supply chain infrastructure. Much has happened in the metals sector within the last 6 months. There's been considerable recent activity building systems and Internet sites to address selling of copper and its downstream products, and buying supplies. Given most sites are in development or very young, it is too early to discern the resulting domino effect, if any, such as reallocation of market share predicted by Andersen Consulting. However, there is general consensus that there will be a flurry of consolidations, if not collapses, in e- marketplace ventures over the next year or two. 2. E-Marketplaces in General E-marketplaces are websites where buyers and sellers come together to buy or sell products and services. E-marketplaces expand choices available to buyers, give sellers access to new customers, and reduce everyone's transaction costs.

  • Keynote and Invited Papers
    Keynote and Invited Papers 17* International Mining Congress and Exhibition of Turkey- IMCET2001, ©2001, ISBN 975-395-417-4 Overview of Ground Control Research for Underground Coal Mines in The United States CMark National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health, Pittsburgh Research Laboratory, Pittsburgh, PA, USA ABSTRACT: Underground coal mining continues to evolve in the U.S., and more reserves are being mined under deeper cover, with worse roof, or with interactions from previous workings. At the same time, the mining community is responding to higher safety standards and intense competitive pressures. The need for effective ground control design has never been greater. Ground control safety issues that have been addressed by recent the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (N10SH) research include: Improving roof support performance; Maintaining safe tailgate escapeways from longwalls; Optimizing pillar design for retreat mining; Controlling multiple seam interactions; Predicting roof conditions during extended cuts, and; Preventing massive pillar collapses. As funding from both government and the private sector has diminished, the emphasis in research has focused on providing the mining community with practical techniques for improved ground control design. Many projects have successfully employed empirical methods that emphasize the statistical analysis of case histories from underground mines. Other projects have employed numerical models and large-scale laboratory testing of roof support elements. Using these data, NIOSH has developed an entire toolbox of computer programs that have been effectively transferred to the mining community. 1 INTRODUCTION supported. While few of these resulted in injuries, each one represented direct threat to Ufe and limb, and an Roof falls have been the single greatest hazard that indirect threat to ventilation, escape, and equipment.
