Abstract
This thesis is an investigation of the strategic impact of Web Services on the firm. A literature review was conducted to gain a broad understanding of the research previously done on various related subjects. The core of this thesis is focused on looking at Web Services using time-tested, generally-accepted strategic management frameworks in order to better understand the true potential impact of Web Services. Utilizing in-depth interviews with industry leaders, comprehensive knowledge of Web Services technology, and seminal academic research where appropriate, the author has attempted to derive the strategic implications of Web Services over a three- to five-year horizon.
