Abstract

This paper presents the results of an exploratory evaluation of the e-business readiness of tourism operators in Hong Kong. The paper draws upon the web design, e-business,information systems, and tourism and hospitality management literature to show that an interpretative evaluation process can be useful in moving towards a framework for the evaluation of the sophistication of the online operations of organisations involved in the online tourism sector. The results of a preliminary evaluation of eighty online tourism operators in Hong Kong is presented and the implications for practice and further research are discussed.
