E‐business migration: a process model

Purpose – This work aims to develop a process model for the migration of the traditional firm to an appropriate e‐business strategy and architecture. Design/methodology/approach – The work is based on a range of published works and professional experience, combining narrative with analysis. Findings – This complex model addresses the multiplicity of factors that must be included in effective e‐business migration. The model addresses technology, business processes, strategy and the consequent organizational change. Originality/value – Focuses on a model that can serve as a basis for dispelling a number of myths reflected in current e‐business migration and implementation efforts.
