The building blocks wherewere designed to support the modelling process by providing means for more efficient modelling.<ref name="Nell97"/>
 
The resulting enterprise model (EM) represents all or part of the enterprise operation. These models will allow simulation of operational alternatives and thereby their evaluation leading. GERAM provides a generic description of all the elements recommended in enterprise engineering and integration.

== History ==
Generalised Enterprise Reference Architecture and Methodology (GERAM) was developed in the 1990s by an [[International Federation of Automatic Control|IFAC]]/[[International Federation of Information Processing|IFIP]] Task Force on [[Enterprise Architecture|Architectures]] for [[Enterprise Integration]], which consisted of [[Peter Bernus]], [[James G. Nell]] and others. The IFAC/IFIP Task Force on Architectures for Enterprise Integration was establishmentestablished in 1990 and hadhas studied enterprise-reference architectures ever since.<ref name="Nell96">[[J.G. Nell]] (2006). "[http://www.mel.nist.gov/sc5wg1/np_geram.htm Requirements and Methodology for Enterprise-Reference Architectures: A New Work Item Proposal]". updated 20 May 1996.</ref>
 
The task force established the requirements to be satisfied by candidate enterprise-reference architectures and their associated methodologies to fulfill the needs of [[Private industry|industry]] for such aids to [[enterprise integration]]. The result has been called GERAM, for "Generalized Enterprise-Reference Architecture and Methodology", by the Task Force. The Task Force has shown that such an architecture is feasible and that several architectures presently available in the literature can already or potentially can fulfilfulfill such requirements.<ref name="Nell96"/>
 
The development of enterprise-reference architecture has evolved from the development of Design Methodology for Advanced Manufacturing Systems in the 1980s,<ref>[[Guy Doumeingts|Doumeingts, G.]], [[Bruno Vallespir|Vallespir]], B., Darracar, D., M., "Design Methodology for Advanced Manufacturing Systems", Computers in Industry, Vol. 9, pp. 271-296, December 1987.</ref> such as [[CIMOSA]], the Open System Architecture for CIM.<ref>[[AMICE Consortium]] (1989). ''Open System Architecture for CIM, Research Report of ESPRIT Project 688'', Vol. 1, Springer-Verlag.</ref><ref>[[AMICE Consortium]] (1991), ''Open System Architecture, CIMOSA, AD 1.0, Architecture Description'', ESPRIT Consortium AMICE, Brussels, Belgium.</ref> The GERAM framework was first published by [[Peter Bernus]] and Laszlo Nemes in 1994.<ref name="BN94"/>
