Our service management approach to information and architecture-based integration of information resources evolved from our client's needs for model-integrated, architecture centric support for policy-driven implementation and its employment as a service oriented architecture for information interoperability.

Service Oriented Architectures promise to speed development and decrease integration time and effort but only if you implement them correctly by starting at the data level. Business transition strategies that employ service oriented architecture will lead to better dialogue between the technology managers and the business line executives by enabling them to think in terms of business, not technical architectures.

The various Canadian provincial and federal governments’ GSRM & BTEP initiatives or the US Federal Enterprise Architecture (FEA) are expected succeed in realizing interoperability especially when they include specification of an information integration platform. These efforts can be accelerated through effective use of model-driven architecture and model-integrated computing implementations.

From our experience Macklin IR proposes that achieving level 4 interoperability within the enterprise will only be realized through the use of integrated business and information architectures. A pilot program that integrates enterprise reference models with a dynamic semantic context model approach can be the basis for your organization can establish a consistent business nomenclature or vocabulary.

The services that are managed by Macklin’s base framework provide for the definition and management of architectural design elements, software component design elements, deployable hardware/software and other forms of configurations items used to implement information interoperability solutions.
