Abstract(s)
O ecosistema da economia digital fornece inúmeras pesquisas e modelos conceituais que
visam a descriçao do padrão da adoção de tecnologia digital de diversas empresas. No
entanto, de acordo com estudos existentes, percebemos que estão faltando modelos de
referência de e-business para as pequenas e médias empresas (PME), que apoiem a
concepção e adoção de negócios digitais adaptáveis às tecnologias. Com base na literatura
e ferramentas relacionadas existentes, exploramos uma abordagem adaptativa e
independente de tecnologia para propor um modelo de referência de conceção de ebusiness para PMEs em diversos contextos de negócios, baseada em arquitetura
empresarial. A nossa proposta integra técnicas de gestão comuns e a prática de arquitectura
empresarial, com vista a apoiar os decisores das PME na concepção e implementação de
e-business. A prosposta compreende três principais facetas inter-relacionadas, partindo da
1) anáise situacional para a determinação dos fatores motivadores e barreiras do ambiente
do negócio; seguida pela 2) avaliação da prontidão da PME com base na existencia de
estratégia digital, catalogo de motivatores e propostas de modelos de negócios, e culminando
com 3) a faceta de implementação com base em arquitetetura de e-business. Sendo que as
duas ultimas facetas formam os componentes chave do perfil da PME. Ademais, incorporase a quarta faceta de arquitetura de soluções de e-business, seleção e aplicação baseados no
ambiente das PMEs. No estudo assumimos uma abordagem prática, propondo e
demonstrando a aplicação de ferramentas que apoiam o processo de concepção no contexto
real de negócio para as diferentas facetas do nosso modelo
Through the digital industry and economy, we find countless researches providing conceptual models aiming to depict digital technology adoption by different businesses. However, according to existing studies, we found that SMEs lack an e-business reference modelling framework that supports the design and adoption of digital-enabled business models. Therefore, we exploit an adaptive and technology-independent approach to propose an Enterprise Architecture (EA) based e-business reference modelling framework for SMEs in diverse business contexts. Our framework comprises mainly of three interrelated building blocks, starting with the 1) situational analysis to determine the motivating factors for change and barriers of the business environment; followed by SMEs profiling. The SMEs profiling embodies the 2) SMEs’ readiness depiction based on the existence of digital strategy, digital-value drivers’ catalogue, and business models proposals; and culminates with the 3) description of the implementation based on e-business architecture. In addition, a fourth building block is incorporated into the framework for eBusiness solutions architecture, selection, and deployment into the current SMEs' business context. In this study, we assume a practical approach, proposing and demonstrating the application of tools that support the conception of an SMEs´ e-business in the business context in all the different facets of our framework
