Abstract

The aim of this emergent research is to explore the interrelations between blockchain technology and Enterprise Systems. Blockchain is one of the trending disruptive technologies of our time, and Enterprise Systems remain the core Information Systems in companies worldwide. While the literature on both separate phenomena is robust, there is very little research on how these two technologies could be integrated. Our research aims to bridge this gap by exploring the potential use areas of blockchain in Enterprise Systems, as well as barriers to integrating blockchain with Enterprise Systems. The study will be exploratory in nature and will follow a qualitative approach, with the analysis of available documentation and interviews with Enterprise Systems and blockchain experts as data-gathering methods. As a result, we aim to deliver insights for an implementation framework for Blockchain-Enterprise Systems integration.
