Abstract

Information security goals and services for e-contracting systems have not previously been closely examined in open literature. This paper identifies key security goals and the services to be considered when designing e-contracting systems. Several AEC collaborative platforms are reviewed. These systems are currently used for project management and could be used for e-contracting. The results of the review show that while integrity and confidentiality of contract documents is ensured during communication in contract formation, few of the systems consider these security requirements during archiving. A new e-contracting architecture is proposed to provide security for the full e-contract life cycle.
