No I don't think moodle does do Enterprise. Bodington VLE will do very soon
- its having a Enterprise Services interface added as we speak! 

The BEWT project (see http://www.jisc.ac.uk/index.cfm?name=elfdemo_uhi) is
currently drawing to a close. We expect the resultant code to be in
Bodington v2.8 released in late 05 / early 06.

| 
| Any answers?

| IMS includes a number of standards. One is the content packaging
| standard,
| which defines how learning objects are packaged up. This is a component
| of
| the shareabole content object reference model(SCORM). However IMS also
| define the "enterprise" standard which defines how student enrolment and
| 
| grade information is passed between a student information system and a
| learning management system. Thats the one being referred to here.
