Abstract

Planning and management of Virtual Organisations (VOs) depends on accurate prognosis of several organisational aspects. This paper examines how structural and functional aspects of such enterprise networks might be forecasted by using systemic methods. The structural aspects cover the partners and their collaborative interactions while the functional aspects describe the value creation processes accompanied by auxiliary processes. Furthermore, an industrial case study is presented and initial expected results from the application of two selected methods are given. The methods analysed in detail are the cross-impact analysis and the collaborative network analysis method.
