Abstract
For many, if not most competitors in the steel industry, the term “e-business” is a source of considerable anxiety. Virtually every magazine and newspaper issued contains at least one article exclaiming the “e-business revolution” and warning organizations that those which are not yet on-board are being left in the dust. One consulting firm, for example, announced recently that as much as 60 percent of steel would be bought and sold via the internet within the next few years.
