We help companies migrate to semantically-based
Service Oriented Architectures (SOAs).
We work with medium/large (1,000 – 10,000 employee) organizations which have become frustrated by their inflexible information systems. We help them assess their current situation and options, and plan a future enterprise architecture based on modern technology.
SOAs are becoming the approach of choice for decoupling large complex enterprise applications, but most implementations still fall far short of their potential because of the short shrift given to semantics.
We’ve been working with Enterprise Applications and Architectures for decades; we’ve been applying Semantic Modeling to the domain of Business Applications for over ten years; and we’ve been applying Semantics and ontology modeling to SOAs for five years.
We are firmly convinced of the power of building an architecture on a solid foundation of semantics. We have recently initiated the “Saratoga Project” as a proof of concept of the marriage of Semantics and SOA. We also offer a wide range of services to help you with your Enterprise Architecture or Semantic initiatives.

Service Orient or Be Doomed!
|
|
A quote from this book by Jason Bloomberg and Ronald Schmelzer, subtitled "How Service Orientation Will Change Your Business"
Page 134 (referring to the lack of experienced SOA consultants):
"As a result, a talent squeeze will drive up the rates of the more experienced consultants, and drive down the quality of the average consultant, as large numbers of inexperienced and poorly trained consultants chase the rapidly growing, newly available opportunities.”
