Explore
their contribution to the organization by examining their business and technological value
propositions, studying their business affiliations, and inspecting their internal structures.
These activities would facilitate the classification of organizational assets and enable an
efficient analysis process that can influence service life cycles.
??? Analysis proposition modeling strategy. The discovery and analysis discipline advocates
identifying the contribution of existing service-oriented assets first, rather than
constructing new services. Embarking upon new solutions by building new services is a
costly proposition that should be reserved to later stages in the analysis phase. This would
facilitate exploration of asset reusability opportunities, encourage reduction in organizational
functionality redundancy, and promote asset consolidation efforts. Furthermore,
enhance the process of separation of organizational concerns that can lead to an analysis
solution that fosters loosely coupled architecture. Finally, propose solutions that involve
multiple services to avoid very coarse-grained service formations.
??? Cost-effectiveness. The cost-effectiveness of the assessed organizational solutions is also
an important part of the analysis process. Major considerations should be given to various
alternatives to determine whether the benefits outweigh the costs. Expensive solutions may
not always be attractive remedies to organizational problems.
