Abstract
In this article we address the issue of sharing information in organizational forms involving parties with various levels of mutual trust and need for cooperation. We evaluate existing data access models and emphasize their failure to deliver a feasible method for providing consistent views of corporate information shared with other partners in an ad hoc relationship. A new data access model is proposed as a solution to this problem. This model combines the ease of maintenance with the ability to present semantically consistent views of the world to all constituents of a virtual enterprise. We discuss the relevance of information sharing across multiple-access levels for achieving competitive advantage in the electronic marketplace.
