Abstract
Within the scope of virtual and networked enterprises, this paper introduces a novel methodology for the integration of quality management into enterprise modeling and allowing f or quality certification of the whole enterprise. The ISO 9001:2000 standard is presented as an interesting starting point f or the virtual enterprise quality management system implementation. Quality management system certification within the scope of ISO 10011 (or even ISO FDIS 19011) is however quite a difficult task. An alternative scenario for certification is therefore proposed.
