Can best be explained by referring to different elements shown in Figure 1.1, i.e. • sell-side e-commerce • buy-side e-commerce • internal use of electronic communications to support business processes. E-business is generally understood to include all three elements. E-commerce is commonly used to refer to either the first one or first two of these elements, but less commonly the third. E-business is broader in scope than e-commerce. 2. Explain what is meant by buy-side and sell-side e-commerce. Again refer to Figure 1.1. Buy-side e-commerce is using communications technology to support the upstream supply chain from procurement to inbound logistics.
