The concept has proven to be beneficial in the manufacturing sectors. Nowadays, innovative strategies established on proven concepts are in demand for modern companies to lessen expenditures, amplify the bottom line, and enhance agility to better respond to market volatilities. This study aims to determine how the extended enterprise concept may be implemented within a software development company's environment by assessing the company's readiness based on an extended enterprise maturity model and assessing the readiness of extended enterprise implementation in XYZ Inc. This study is part of a more comprehensive intertwined field of extended enterprise implementation studies. Within this study, we employ qualitative methods and data analysis based on interviews, examining existing documents in the company, and literature reviews. Results found within XYZ Inc. are a good candidate for further implementation of the extended enterprise because it already has the foundation and governance based on extended enterprise characteristics.
