B2B(business-to-business) commerce has become the prime driver of contemporary electronic commerce. Under B2B commerce, corporations often must operate across organizational boundaries to share their business processes. Workflow management was proposed by Aalst(4, 5) to support several business partners that are involved in shared workflow processes in B2B commerce. We designed a messaging system for B2B workflow, where heterogeneous workflow management systems on each organization for trade were integrated. Based on Aalst's example in(4, 5), we analyzed B2B workflow by using class diagram, use case diagram, activity diagram, and statechart diagram of UML, and designed the messaging system, We also demonstrated a prototype system which was implemented by using Java API and XML. To compare with a holistic system such as EDI systems, the messaging system allows the business partners in B2B commerce to communicate with each other by dedicated messages and integrate each B2B interoperable workflow without any restrictions.

본 연구는 B2B (business-to-business) 비즈니스 모델 혁신(business model innovation, BMI)이 B2C (business-to-consumer) 비즈니스 모델 혁신 대비 혁신성과에 미치는 상대적 효과를 실증적으로 검증하고자 한다. BMI의 하위요인을 가치창출(value creation), 가치제안(value proposition), 가치획득(value capture)으로 나누어 각각의 요인 간의 관계를 구체적으로 분석한다. 본 연구는 실증분석을 위해 2022년 기업가정신 실태조사(기업편) DB의 3,120개 기업을 활용하였다. 분석 결과, BMI 중 가치창출은 B2B (vs. B2C) 혁신성과에 미치는 영향이 더 크며 유의한 것으로 나타났다. 반면 가치제안은 B2C (vs. B2B) 혁신성과에 미치는 영향이 더 크며 유의한 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구의 결과를 통해 주 비지니스 대상에 따라 BMI가 혁신성과에 상이한 영향을 미친다는 것을 실증했다는 점에서 학술적 의의가 있으며, 기업 특성에 따른 차별화된 BMI를 추구하는 것이 중요하다는 실무적 시사점을 가진다.
