Consulting Expertise

Despite all of the articles and books on the topic, companies today are no more effective at delivering on large-scale change initiatives than they were 20 years ago. In a recent survey, 70% of the companies said their change management initiatives did not deliver the expected results. That success rate was unchanged from similar surveys conducted in the 1980's and 1990's. And the environment for change is only getting more complex.  Read more .......

SOA Architectures Touting Big Wins, But Could Fail At A Large Scale

Written by Colin Whickman   
Tuesday, 09 October 2007
I have recently been told that almost all the technology RFPs going out have at least one question regarding support for SOA. I have also seen an opinion that most, if not all, policy administration system vendors in the US list SOA compliance as a feature of their systems, which is interesting because I am not aware that any UK based vendor would claim the same thing. In the US though, both carriers and policy administration vendors are locked in this dance, a dance that we've done before.

SOA is the latest architecture to hit the scene. The benefits being touted are the same that were promoted with past architectures. I seriously doubt SOA will improve the ability to do an out-of-sequence endorsement. It is supposed to allow information to be interchanged among different systems. I think it's still too early in the adoption cycle to see if SOA will live up to the advertised benefits.
