Title: [ebxml-msg] Question about imprementation of MS specification to realbusiness

Yukinori Saito,

 

The organization that runs 
one of the largest Electric Grids in the United States (ERCOT - http://www.ercot.com/), is replacing FTP with 
an ebXML MS B2B solution. The ebXML software has recently passed ERCOT 
certification testing and is moving into production operation. FTP is scheduled 
to be completely eliminated by the end of 2002.

 

You can find more information 
about the FTP Replacement Project and the ebXML MS solution used by ERCOT 
at:

http://www.ercot.com/Participants/FTPReplacement/index.htm

 

The 
FTP Replacement Project/ebXML solution has been presented 

as a 
case study for implementing ebXML within the Energy industry to 
representatives from the following European and North American 
Energy organizations:

EFET - 
http://www.efet.org/

ETSO 
- http://www.etso-net.org/

EURELECTRIC - http://www.eurelectric.org/

NAESB 
- http://www.naesb.org/

UIG - 
http://www.uig.org/

 

NOTE: 
UIG has a liaison relationship with the Federation of Electric Power Companies 
(FEPC) E3 group in Japan.

There 
are currently discussions underway to form a collaborative European/North 
American effort to define B2B standards around ebXML. Feel free to e-mail me 
privately if you would like more information about this 
initiative.

  [ebxml-msg] Question about imprementation of MS specification to 
  realbusiness

  
Dear Members of OASIS ebXML Messaging TC, 

  
Kasumi Co. Ltd. in Japan developed B2B system based on ebXML 
  MS 
specification V1.0. 
The 
  outline of this system is followings. 
(1) This system 
  is EDI system between Retail and Maker. 
(2) This 
  system is developed by NEC corporation. NEC corporation is very 
  
famous IT vendor company in Japan. 
(3) Business documents 
-Retail: Purchase Order 
  Prediction, Sales Information 
-Maker: Products 
  Information, Sales Promotion Information, Sales Results 
(4) Reasons to adopt ebXML MS specification 
-This project recognized that ebXML will become an international 
  standard. 
-GCI (Global Commerce Initiative) announced 
  that GCI will adopt ebXML 
specification. 
  
(5) Scope of adoption of MS specification in this 
  system 
-This system avoided vague part of MS 
  specification V1.0. As a result, this 
system adopted 
  same parts that is equivalent to  Core Extension of ebXML MS 
  
V2.0. The engineer of NEC corporation says it is appropriate 
  that the MS 
V2.0 specification is divided to Core 
  Extension and Options. 
-Adopted asynchronous 
  communication method to have flexibility of messaging 
handling. 
-Devised and designed error handling 
  procedures about errors of payloads. 
(6) Next 
  step 
-Studying to upgrade to MS V2.0. 
-Studying to adopt CPA. Because there is close relationship between 
  MS 
specification and CPPA specification. 
  
But the designer is thinking that there is no need to adopt 
  CPP, because 
they know all companies very much each 
  other. This system will develop one 
common CPA in 
  these EDI system. 
(7) This system is actually 
  operating now as real business. This system has 
started real operation from November 2001. This system is the first 
  case 
that adopted ebXML MS specification to real 
  business in Japan and in Asia 
region. 

  
Questions, 
Does anyone has some 
  information about following point? 
-Is this system the 
  first case that adopted MS specification to real 
business in the world? 
-If anyone has some 
  information that some companies or industries adopted MS 
specification in real business in West countries, please let me 
  know. 
-If anyone has information about these, please 
  let me know. 

  
Best Regards, 
Yukinori Saito
