4. Bremer et al. [5] use the term virtual organisation to denote an organisation that acts as a broker and support organisation for a network of enterprises, mostly small enterprises, to form temporary alliances, called virtual enterprises. Our concept of virtual organisation corresponds to their concept of virtual enterprise, but includes the support processes.
