Conclusion

Throughout the course of this project, we were able to learn about the information systems of the Amazon company and relate it to the coursework and lectures in class. It has been an involved process with research, data analysis, and team collaboration. Overall, we have succeeded in these aspects and this project has been a great learning experience for the group members who have participated in it. 

We learned about the history of the largest e-commerce website in the world and the business strategies employed to separate the company from its competitors. We analyzed the unique IT structures that monitored consumer spending habits, stored the data, and used it to further increase profits for the firm. Weaknesses present by the firm such as poor working conditions, limited physical presence, and penetration into developing markets were also critically evaluated by our group, and suggestions were given. In addition, Amazon's key software and technological capabilities including Amazon Web Services and Amazon Linux 2 have helped to give this firm a competitive edge over its competitors. 

If Amazon were to further leverage its strengths related to its information systems and critically assess and amend its weaknesses we believe Amazon will continue to be one of the top firms in the world for years to come.


Thank you for reading.
