ABOUT THE ORGANIZATIONS
About the ebTWG
The eBusiness Transition Working Group (ebTWG) was created by UN/CEFACT
Steering Group (CSG) in July 2001 for the purpose of continuing the
UN/CEFACT's role in pioneering the development of XML standards for
electronic business. The group was formed to build on the success of the
earlier ebXML Joint Initiative between UN/CEFACT and OASIS, which
delivered its first set of specifications in May 2001.
About the TMWG
The purpose of the Techniques & Methodologies Working
Group (TMWG) is to research and identify techniques and methodologies
which could be utilised by CEFACT and its working groups to enhance the
process by which its deliverables are produced and integrated.
The key deliverables of the TMWG are:
- Proposals, including draft Recommendations, on
how specific techniques and methodologies could be implemented to allow
CEFACT to achieve its goals;
- Proof of concept, by feasibility studies and
pilots, of the above proposals;
- Implementation and migration plan for any approved new technique
and/or methodology.
The TMWG is a group of experts with broad-based
knowledge of existing techniques and methodologies used within CEFACT,
technological developments, and the functions of CEFACT and its sub
groups. Each CEFACT head of delegation may designate one or more experts
to the TMWG. In doing so, they may delegate this task to one or more
organisations, which may be national, regional or international. Experts
are expected to contribute to the work based solely on their
expertise.
