<span style="FONT-FAMILY:'Times New Roman'"><font size="3">The use of the Internet and Electronic Commerce in the late ’90s caused the disappearance of intermediaries between the buyer and seller. A seller could sell his products and services directly to a buyer without an intermediary in between (Shaffer and Zettlemeyer 1999; Wigand and Benjamin 1995; Choi and others 1997). With the advance in the development of Electronic Commerce technologies, new types of intermediaries were established. These new intermediaries were offering new value added services. New intermediaries attract a lot of new buyers and sellers with new services that support the trading process between them (</font></span><span style="FONT-FAMILY:'Times New Roman'"><font size="3">Clarke 2001, 596; Chircu and Kauffman 2000, 7; </font></span><span style="FONT-FAMILY:'Times New Roman'"><font size="3">DeSisto 2000, 4;</font></span><span style="FONT-FAMILY:'Times New Roman'"><font size="3"> Chircu and Kauffman 1999; 109; The Economist 1999, Barling and Stark 1998; Zwas 1998</font></span><span style="FONT-FAMILY:'Times New Roman'"><font size="3">). This new way of doing business describes the e-marketplace, which represents one of the new business models developed in the late ’90s. The e-marketplace is the result of using innovative technology in business processes. </font></span>

<span style="FONT-FAMILY:'Times New Roman'"><font size="3">Doing business on the e-marketplace enables sellers to enter new markets, to find new buyers, and to increase sales. On the other side, the e-marketplace gives a buyer access to a broader range of products and services offered by sellers. A buyer has the option to quickly compare various offers by price and performance measures. The e-marketplace services support the exchange of large amounts of data about the supply and demand between the buyer and seller, and the implementation of business transactions (DeSisto 2000, 4, Lenz 2000, 2). </font></span>

<span style="FONT-FAMILY:'Times New Roman'"><font size="3">There are many different business models of e-marketplaces. In practice, we can find a lot of evidence that the e-marketplace is supporting many different processes between a buyer and a seller. Some e-marketplaces support only the aggregation of supply and demand, and the searching and matching of buyers or sellers. In addition, many e-marketplaces support different types of auctions and negotiations. On the other hand, not many e-marketplaces support the entire trading process where business services such as contracting, finances, logistics, insurance, legal, payments and other services are needed (Pucihar 2003, 140).</font></span>

Furthermore, in the age of the Internet and with the emergence of new information and communication technologies, the e-marketplace is a Web-based information system, where multiple suppliers and multiple buyers can undertake business transactions via the Internet (Russ 2001, 2). The e-marketplace uses Internet technologies and standards to distribute product data and to facilitate online transactions (Segev and others 1999, 138). </font></span>

The most commonly used services on today’s marketplaces are related to maintaining a product e-catalogue, negotiating support and performing on-line auctions (Lefebvre and others 2001). The aim of intermediaries, i. e. e-marketplace service providers, is to provide a wide range of services to all the participants on the e-marketplace. Among others, these services include product development, logistics and insurance services, payments and similar. There are not many marketplaces operating today that offer such a wide range of services. Most of them are oriented in providing services of matching buyers and sellers, negotiation and auction services (Dai and Kauffman 2001).</font></span>

<span style="FONT-FAMILY:'Times New Roman'"><font size="3">The appeal of doing business on the Web is clear. By bringing together large numbers of buyers and sellers and by automating transactions, e-marketplaces expand the choices available to buyers, give sellers access to new customers (buyers), and reduce transaction costs for all participants. By extracting fees for the transactions occurring within the business-to-business (B2B) marketplaces, market makers (intermediaries) can earn vast revenues. Hence, since the marketplaces are made from software – not bricks and mortar – they can gain scale with minimal additional investment, promising even more attractive margins as the markets grow (Haag and others 2002, 212; Kaplan and Sawhney, 98, 2000). An organization will enter an e-marketplace only if it will see enough benefits that might be gained with value added services on the e-marketplace. That is why it is important that intermediaries know the buyers’ and suppliers’ needs very well. This will enable them to provide value-added services and provide the necessary critical mass of organizations to the marketplaces (Pucihar 2002). </font></span>

One of the main requirements for successfully doing business on the e-marketplace is the use of e-commerce in daily business. An organization may enter the e-marketplace as a buyer or a seller (supplier). An organization must take very careful steps to prepare itself for a successful entrance on the e-marketplace. Only this kind of approach will enable the organization to a full use of the available opportunities and will bring expected business results (Archer and Gebauer 2000). For that reason, it is important to research the factors that organizations need to consider to successfully enter the e-marketplace.</font></span>

In a real business world, we can find many cases of successful as well as many cases of unsuccessful use of the e-marketplace, on both the buyers’ and sellers’ side. Unsuccessful use of the e-marketplace might be caused by improper services of e-marketplace providers. If services of e-marketplace providers do not add any value to the buyer or seller, then in the long term, they will not choose the e-marketplace as a way of doing business. Thus, the e-marketplace will be forced to close its business since it will not attract a sufficient critical mass of companies. Without a sufficient number of sellers, buyers cannot choose among different sellers. The same rule also applies to buyers - if there are not enough buyers on the e-marketplace, then sellers do not have sufficient interest to join the e-marketplace since they will not have parties to whom they could sell their products or services.</font></span>

<span style="FONT-FAMILY:'Times New Roman'"><font size="3">The direction in which the e-marketplace will evolve is still quite uncertain because of the quickly changing environment and fast development of e-commerce technologies. In the long term, only the e-marketplace that will offer the most value-added services will survive in the turbulent global economic environment. As e-commerce connects markets to one global market, organizations will have to be able to compete on the global market. They will try to gain the competitive advantage in different ways, which includes doing business on the e-marketplace. For that reason, it is important to investigate how organizations need to be organized to successfully enter the e-marketplace. By knowing these factors, organizations will be able to better prepare to enter e-marketplaces successfully and to be able to compete in the global marketplace (Pucihar 2002). Doing business on the e-marketplace in Slovenia is not yet very widespread; however, there are some indices from various organizations showing their interest in entering the e-marketplace. Since Slovenia is in the process of joining the European Union, this research is especially important for organizations in Slovenia, who will soon have the opportunity to operate and compete on the common European and global market (Pucihar 2002). </font></span>

However, we can observe some interest expressed by organizations, such as Telekom Slovenije, various IS providers and some government institutions (Government Center of Informatics), to establish the e-marketplace. In addition, some companies are looking for opportunities to establish private e-marketplaces to involve all their partners from the supply chain. In Slovenia, there are several IT providers who would like to sell their software designed to operate e-marketplaces. On the other side, we have some organizations that have already joined the e-marketplaces outside Slovenia. Some of them were already awarded and won some business contracts (Pucihar 2002).</font></span>

<span style="FONT-FAMILY:'Times New Roman'"><font size="3">It is also important that the top management supports the project of entering the e-marketplace and that they have a clear vision and strategy how they will exploit the benefits of this new way of doing business. A defined position of an electronic commerce executive in an organization might elevate the importance of electronic commerce and electronic business for the organization. It is also important that employees are educated and trained for such a way of doing business. Usually the e-marketplace providers offer all the necessary training on how to use different e-marketplace software.</font></span>

<span style="FONT-FAMILY:'Times New Roman'"><font size="3">It is important that an organization is aware of the costs that will appear by entering the e-marketplace. In addition to the direct costs, such as e-marketplace annual fees and service fees, organizations will also be faced with various indirect costs, such as training costs, investments in new technology or maybe even investments in setting up and maintaining an e-catalogue of products and services. Only if the organization has a strong vision about entering the e-marketplace and if it is aware of the additional costs that may appear, it will be able to assure the necessary resources. Every organization has to calculate the expected benefits and costs because, in any case, the expected benefits have to be higher than the expected costs in order to make a choice about entering the e-marketplace.</font></span>

Organizations that intend to enter the e-marketplace must be able to offer standardized electronic data about their products and services. The use of electronic commerce standards enables the connection of different information systems. This is especially important in the case of entering the e-marketplace because many organizations that are using different information systems need to communicate with each other. </font></span>

<span style="FONT-FAMILY:'Times New Roman'"><font size="3">Almost all e-marketplaces operate on the Web-based information systems, thus it is important that the modern IT infrastructure, which enables Internet commerce, is in place in the organization. Many e-marketplaces operate on the basis of information systems integration, this being especially valid for consortia based e-marketplaces. As many organizations have implemented enterprise resource planning systems, it is important that they are able to connect their systems with other information systems of business partners. The use of electronic commerce standards and different interfaces for business-to-business systems integration make integration processes much easier. </font></span>

<span style="FONT-FAMILY:'Times New Roman'"><font size="3">It is important that organizations have their business processes ready to be connected with business partners. They must change and modify business processes to the new way of doing business. The necessary changes of business processes are dependent on the type of e-marketplace that the organization is willing to enter. For example, an organization will have to make more changes if it decides to enter a private or consortia-based e-marketplace rather than third party e-marketplaces. To enter a private or consortia-based e-marketplace, an organization has to consider changing its business processes because the next step will usually be the integration of information systems. To enter an independent third party e-marketplace, it is usually enough to use the Web browser to make an order or to participate in an on-line auction.</font></span>

<span style="FONT-FAMILY:'Times New Roman'"><font size="2">Privlačnost poslovanja putem (World Wide) Weba je jasna: agregiranjem velikog broja kupaca i prodavača, te automatiziranjem transakcija, elektronička tržišta povećavaju izbor dostupan kupcima, ali i pružaju prodavateljima pristup novim kupcima, te smanjuju transkacijske troškove za sve učesnike u trgovanju. Ulaz na elektroničko tržište je povezan s reinženjeringom, povezivanjem informacijskih sustava, stjecanjem novih znanja putem treninga i učenja, te investiranjem u nove informacijske tehnologije i software. Organizacija koja namjerava s uspjehom ući u elektroničko tržište, mora se za takav korak pažljivo pripremiti. Samo će takav pristup organizaciji otvoriti potpuni pristup svim mogućnostima koje stoje na raspolaganju, te dovesti do očekivanih poslovnih rezultata. U radu se predstavljaju različiti oblici elektroničkih tržišta, te uporaba elektroničkih tržišta u poslovanju. Nadalje se iznose rezultati istraživanja provedenog u 250 velikih slovenskih poduzeća. U istraživanju se razmatra trenutna razina korištenje elektroničke trgovine i tržišta u velikim slovenskim poduzećima, te se izdvajaju organizacijski čimbenici koji se cijene bitnim za uspješan ulazak na elektronička tržišta. U zaključku rada se iznose preporuke za organizacije koje namjeravaju ući na elektroničko tržište. </font></span>
