Electronic product catalogue
Electronic product catalogues are the digital variant of traditional product catalogues providing information on products and prices. Electronic product catalogues can support additional functionality such as automated search or product configuration. Furthermore, electronic product catalogues might provide interfaces which allow access to product and price information through other business application systems. However, it is crucial to consider exchange standards for automated access to product catalogues.

Electronic tendering
Electronic tendering (E-tendering) describes all those tendering processes that support the electronic specification and opening of tenders and/or electronic submission of tenders. This implies some major advantages: Since tendering processes are standardised, transaction costs can be reduced significantly. For minimal additional costs numerous suppliers can be notified of an open tender and it is much easier to compare and evaluate incoming tenders. High volume projects are typical investments where tendering is used as pricing mechanism; the low investments necessary for standardising the tendering process promise quick returns.
