by Michael Rosen

When we look at examples of companies that excel in these areas, we see some similarities. First, these companies have taken an overall, enterprise-wide approach to defining their business processes and the IT infrastructure needed to support them. Underlying and unifying the IT infrastructure is a service-oriented architecture (SOA). Second, these companies have implemented changes in their business and development organizations to support the new approach.
