- Specialist firm provinding actionable guidance and support to the most profound transformation

in the history of business and IT
 - Enabling structured, enterprise level SOA
 - Facilitating SOA standards
  - Submitted a meta model for SOA (check this)
 - Research based best practices
- The challenge:
 - Complex change management problem
 - Introducing architecture driven approach to largely unstructured environment
- PRE-SOA
 - Project driven
 - Variable approaches and processes
 - Point to point integration
 - Low levels of reuse at any level
 - Loose coupled technology
 - Tight coupled applications
 - Low level of business alignment
- SOA
 - Business/IT convergence
 - Contract based services
 - High levels of reuse of coarser grained functionality
 - Manufacturing and assembly environment
 - Architecture and policy driven
 - Repeatable processes
 - Strong governance to maintain architectural integrity
- Tactical SOA
 - Project and infrastructure driven
 - Delivering and using services with little or no structure
 - Little or no consensus or consistency across the organization
 - No explicit policies and repeatable processes thar permit governance
