These deliverables will serve as inputs to
future service discovery, analysis, design, architecture, and construction phases. Then what are
the required artifacts for the attribution analysis process?
??? Business requirements documents. These documents should include detailed descriptions
and properties of the proposed business solutions, such as background introduction,
problem domain, solution ideas, product motivation statements, detailed descriptions of
products, glossaries, and business rules.
??? Core attribute list. Business analysis and business architecture efforts should yield a
fundamental core attribute list for each inspected product. This list is simply a bullet-point
document containing attributes and their descriptions.
??? Attribution model. For the attribution analysis phase, an attribution model must be
constructed for each proposed business product. This model should consist of the core
attributes and their permutations.
??? Hot and sweet spot attributes. Hot and sweet spot attribute nodes should be identified in
the attribution model to facilitate the identification of conceptual services that is described
in Chapter 5.

??? Business analysis
Establishing core attributes for a particular product is a necessary step that leads to successful
identification of conceptual services.
