| Description/functionality | The Enterprise Interoperability Maturity Model for SMEs (EIMM-SME) is a staged model, based on the structure of the EIMM developed within ATHENA. The new model has been adapted for SME environments. Based on an EIMM-SME assessment, SMEs will be guided to choose the right concepts for improving their capabilities, by taking into account actual market and enterprise challenges. |
| Benefits to interoperability | This approach will help SMEs assess their interoperability maturity in order to be able to participate in digital ecosystems. The model provides a roadmap for establishing core capabilities required for participating in digital ecosystems. |
| Supported models/methodologies | |
| Supported input interfaces | |
| Supported output interfaces | |
| Validation/demonstration | The EIMM which this model is based on has been validated through internal trials. |
| Standards compliance | |
| Availability | Documentation about the EIMM-SME can be found in the DA8.2 deliverable and its appendixes. The model is also supported by an Excel sheet. |
