Businesses tend to concentrate on the traditional tangible elements of the supply chain and ignore the crucial importance of using the web to build, develop and enhance trust in the e-marketplace. Through an extensive literature review, the major dimensions of trust are highlighted and a more precise definition and characterization of trust are developed. Second, relevant collaboration theories for developing trust are reviewed. Based upon the proposed definition and characterization of trust and collaboration theories, a conceptual framework for enhancing trust and shared understanding among stakeholders of the web supply chain is proposed. Finally, using the conceptual framework as a reference, modules of web-based support system for enhancing trust are highlighted.enToward developing web based support systems for enhanced trust among value web chainsText/Conference Paper1617-5468
