Abstract
FERP Mall is a proposed intermediary business model for marketing of distributed ERP component-based Web services. This FERP Mall aims to cover the needs of small and medium enterprises (SMEs) to FERP functionality because the conventional ERP systems are expensive and only large companies can afford these systems. Beside the intermediation of FERP Web Services these mediators describes the appropriate FERP Workflow (Wf) for the end-user companies, which integrate the required FERP Web services. The relevant question in this case is: how to find the appropriate price of each FERP workflow description as marketable product? Therefore, this work describes a logical analysis of this product (Wf-definition) and finds out a suitable model, which can be considered for the determination of logical prices of these products.
