Abstract
This paper applies the concept of inter-firm resources to inter-organizational information systems that are shared between enterprises within production and logistics networks. The paper focuses on challenges during collaborative initiation, development, implementation, operation, and maintenance as well as termination of such shared information systems. The availability of instruments for improving all these life cycle phases of shared information systems is discussed based on the implementation of an EPCIS-based data exchange infrastructure within an automotive production network.
