Integration of agents and Web Services has been target of much interest and significant work in the last few years. In this paper an openly available implementation of a FIPA compliant Jade Message Transport System for Web Services is presented and evaluated. It provides a mechanism to integrate Jade agents transparently with Web Services, The proposed message representation is compliant with FIPA and modern Web Services standards and is part of FIPA's initiative to create specifications for Web Services integration. Agent implementations do not require to be changed to interact with Web Services or to provide services using this tool. It also can be used to implement complex conversations as choreographies of Web Services.
