Overview: A significant challenge in any system design situation is that the parties involved in the decision-making have different mental models of how the desired and emerging systems compare. This paper proposes the use of modelling software to enable visualisation of the necessary business processes for the fulfilment of any planned e-business initiative. Simple stock-flow structures can be drawn to visualise and reflect on the two-way flows of information, product/service and money that define the critical structure of any e-Business. The process of envisioning the proposed systems can be built from scratch or use pre-formed representations of Weill and Vitale's 'Atomic' e-Business models.
