heal.abstract	During last decades great expectations have been placed on Enterprise Modelling and Integration through ontologies. However, most of the existing proposals concentrate on an extensive set of enterprise concepts and definitions, making difficult for ontology engineers to distinguish only those of their interest. In this regard, this paper presents an approach towards a standard abstract framework for constructing Enterprise ontologies. The main aim of this approach is constructing an upper-level Ontology incorporating generic enterprise concepts and relations. The proposed ontology aims at becoming a starting point rather than being a predefined solution. Starting with this upper Ontology, business analysts can adapt and enhance in order to model enterprises of any type and sector.	en
