Abstract Based on the philosophy of agile m anufacturing，this paper analyses the basic concepts and connotation of virtual organization information system (VOIS)，points out that VOIS has the characteristics of being distributed，cooperative，adaptive，and can be rapidly reengineered．Differences between VOIS and traditional enterprise inform ation system have been analyzed．Based on analyses of the structure of VOIS，the authors present an abstract hierarchical structure of VOIS and describe it level by level using object-oriented method．Reengineering ideology and m ethods of V OIS are also explored in light of the three level structure．
