How to Teach This Module
This section contains information that will help you teach this module.
Lesson: Creatinga Project Vision
This lesson focuses on the first part of the design specification, the project
vision. It reintroduces the concept of adesign specification from Module 2,
“Conducting Project Research,” as a way to state the goals of adesign plan and
how the organization plans to achieve those goals. The content in this lesson is
drawn from Modules 1, “Introduction to B2B Integration,” and Module 2, and
is meant as review and preparation for the paper-based lab at the end of this
module.
To begin, students gather information about their organization and its goals.
They also gather information about their trading partners that can influence the
overall design.
Lesson: Creatinga Project Design
This lesson focuses on the second part of the design specification, the project
design. The content in this lesson is drawn from Modules 3 through 8 of this
course and is meant as review and preparation for the paper-based lab. Students
can also use this lesson as a checkpoint to assess their mastery of the material
that they learned during the course. This lesson provides you, as an instructor,
the opportunity to clarify and reinforce the major decision points of aB2B
integration solution with the students before they leave the class.
Lab: CreatingaB2BIntegrationDesign
This lab introduces students to Hanson Brothers, a company that is considering
B2B integration with one or more of its trading partners. Students will watch
videos of several Hanson Brothers representatives as they discuss the business
situation of the company and the goals and requirements of their own
departments.
In Exercise 1, Creatinga Project Vision, introduce the exercise and then play
the video file 2420A_09v005.wmv. After students finish watching the video,
divide them into design teams and have them answer the questions in the
exercise. Then, ask students to discuss their answers as a class.
In Exercise 2, Creatinga Project Design, introduce the exercise and then play
the video file 2420A_09v010.wmv. After students watch the second video, in
which Hanson Brothers representatives provide additional information, tell the
students to continue to work in their design teams and create a high-level B2B
design plan that satisfies the requirements that are stated in the videos. Then,
ask the design teams present their designs, and have them discuss the designs as
a class for the remainder of the day.
At a minimum, student answers should include the design points from the
second lesson of this module. The lab answer that is provided is neither
complete nor definitive. It is intended as a sample of what a solution may
include. Use the lab answer to encourage classroom debate and discussion
about the solutions that the students create.
Module9:CreatingaB2BIntegrationDesign v
The design lab is scheduled for 75 minutes, but it can run longer depending on
classroom participation and enthusiasm. After students watch the Exercise 1
video, divide them into small teams and ask them to spend 15 minutes
discussing the scenario and preparing answers for Exercise 1. Then, discuss the
answers with the class. After students watch the second video, ask them to
spend 45 minutes discussing the scenario and preparing answers for Exercise 2.
Then, ask each team to present its answers to the class.
Although the lab scenario provides a clear path to certain design decisions, it
contains enough ambiguity to encourage student discussion and debate.
Students may disagree with the answers that are provided in the Delivery Guide
and the Student Materials compact disc. Disagreement is acceptable if the
student can provide adequate business or technical justification. To increase
student involvement, ask a representative of each team to present the team’s
answers to the class and then defend the design.

******************************
In business-to-business (B2B) integration, no generic solutions exist because
each organization is unique and has different business and technical
requirements, processes, and systems. For example, some large organizations
use a sophisticated electronic data interchange (EDI) infrastructure and have
spent years perfecting B2B business practices. In contrast, some midmarket
organizations still use paper catalogs and enter orders manually.
To create adesign that translates your goals into actions, you complete adesign
specification. In the first part of the design specification, called the project
vision, you research and document your organization’s business goals and
drivers for B2B integration. In the second part, called the project design, you
specify actions that your organization must take to meet your goals and
complete your B2Bintegration solution.
After completing this module, you will be able to:
!
Research your organization’s goals to create a project vision for your B2B
integration solution.
!
Research your organization’s technical requirements to create a project
design for your B2Bintegration solution.

******************************
To create a successful B2Bintegration solution for your organization, gather
the necessary background information about your organization and your trading
partners. Three major factors influence your design: the buyers who buy your
products, the catalogs that present product information to buyers, and the order
processing transactions that occur when buyers buy from you electronically.
You must identify your current and potential B2B trading partners. Your
trading partners and their integration requirements directly influence the scope
and complexity of your design. Simple integration designs may connect your
organization with a single online marketplace, whereas complex designs may
integrate your organization with multiple individual buyers and their dissimilar
infrastructures.
To create catalogs that meet the requirements of your trading partners, first
identify where your organization currently stores product information and how
it manages that information. Then, identify how you create your catalogs and
whether they are electronic, paper, or both. Knowing the complexity of your
catalog creation process will help you allocate time and resources for planning
the project, so that you can create catalogs rapidly for your trading partners.
Trading partners must be able to submit purchase orders (POs) electronically to
your organization for order processing. How your organization receives and
processes orders and the degree of automation that you want will determine to
what extent you will integrate your organization’s business systems.
You can choose to do a small amount of internal integration of your business
systems or a significant amount. For example, you may decide only to integrate
purchase order receiving and internally route POs to an Enterprise Resource
Management (ERP) system. Or, you may decide to integrate your POs
throughout your full procurement cycle and process the entire transaction
electronically from start to finish through many dissimilar business systems.

******************************
In the planning stages of your integration design, identify the main trading
partners that you consider to be candidates for B2B integration. As a supplier,
your trading partners may be marketplaces, buyers, or both. Understand the
requirements and restrictions of each trading partner so that you can design the
most appropriate B2Bintegration solution.
A trading partner agreement is a document that lists the essential components
that are necessary to integrate a trading partner in your B2B system. A typical
trading partner agreement includes:
!
Business practices and requirements. The trading partner’s typical business
processes, including how it submits orders and transmits other types of
business documents, such as invoices.
!
Preferred business document schemas. The type of Extensible Markup
Language (XML)-based schemas that the trading partner uses for electronic
catalogs, purchase orders, and other business documents.
!
Preferred protocols for transmitting business documents. Trading partners
can specify one or more Internet protocols to use.
!
Security of information. The measures that you will take to protect business
documents and other trading partner information, including securing the
protocol that you use to transmit business documents.
!
Trading partner restrictions. Limitations on the size of catalogs and any
other technical restrictions that affect your B2Bintegration solution.
!
Service level agreement. A technical document that specifies the level or
quality of service that you and your trading partner guarantee to provide to
each other.
Because a trading partner agreement is legally binding, it is strongly
recommended that you consult with your organization’s legal representatives
before you create one.
