| Abstract | The goal of a Boundaryless Organization is to improve corporate performance by reducing hierarchy, changing organizational structure, altering boundaries, and overcoming barriers within the organization. Open Source software development model not only mirrors the Boundaryless organization model, but it can actually act as the catalyst for a company's Boundaryless transformation. This paper will describe the parallels between the Boundaryless model derived by GE and the consultants they hired (Ron Ashkenas et al) and and the Boundaryless models observed within the Linux development community (and specifically Red Hat). It will then describe a seventh business model to add to The Open Group's current six reference business models. Finally, it will discuss some specific examples of how open source software may facilitate or function as components of the Reference Architecture that The Open Group has proposed as part of its vision to support Boundaryless Information Flow.
