A Meta-methodology for Collaborative Network Organisations: A Case Study and Reflections

Abstract

Presently, there is a great need for methodologies and reference models to assist and guide the creation and operation of various types of Collaborative Networked Organisations (CNO). The efforts to fulfil this need can be greatly assisted by a meta-methodology integrating diverse CNO creation and operation knowledge. This paper continues previous research on the concept, requirements, design, verification and potential implementations of a CNO life cycle meta-methodology, by describing an additional case study and subsequent reflections leading to the refinement and extension of the proposed meta-methodology.
