Abstract: AbstractKogut and Zander (1992) have speculated that information systems simplify the replication of knowledge and by implication codify the knowledge. This leads to further speculation that information systems may be forms of organizational knowledge. The authors of this paper 1) extend the concepts of Kogut and Zander to describe knowledge and organizational knowledge, 2) identify a taxonomy of IS, and 3) offer a model of information systems as objectified organizational process knowledge surrounded by layers of human process knowledge. Areas for future research are outlined as well.
