This page provides an overview about the objectives and envisaged results in the OnTour project.

Objectives

The OnTour project will develop and validate new ways of workflow in the business between suppliers, vendors and customers in the tourist value chain. Therefore, an open network for electronic commerce in tourist business will be developed offering new access to and distribution of information for the partners of the value chain. It will increase the effectiveness of the commercial users and the transparency of tourist services for private users. Leading to a new flexibility in the tourist business, the network will integrate and facilitate interoperability of existing technologies to give new impulses innovating the workflow of other companies and branches of business characterised by supply chain management such as forwarding business, event tourism, mail order houses, etc. For details see Objectives.

Envisaged Results

The Ontour project will deliver for example an open commercial network for tourism, a reference model for tourist business processing and an OnTour smartcard. For details see Envisaged Results.
