The Extended Enterprise
The term "extended enterprise" represents the concept that a company is made up not just of its employees, its board members, and executives, but also its business partners, its suppliers, and even its customers. The extended enterprise can only be successful if all of the component groups and individuals have the information they need in order to do business effectively.
Extended enterprise applications, or applications that span company boundaries, include a web of relationships between a company and its employees, managers, partners, customers, suppliers, and markets. You need to know your suppliers' stock conditions in real-time. Your customers and partners need to know about your latest products or services as soon as they're available. Your board and CEO need to have the latest financial information at their fingertips in order to make appropriate decisions about the company's future. The extended enterprise is an intricate, interconnected network of information, and you need true enterprise-strength solutions to tie all these together.
Examples are DaimlerChrysler and National Gypsum (see links below)
