Is there a link between integration success and tools?
• Yes
– Enterprises using comprehensive integration solutions have higher levels of B2B success than those
• Using multiple best of breed integration products
• Relying on custom development for integration
• Why?
– Comprehensive, pre-integrated solutions increase IT’s effectiveness in supporting the business.
• Combined B2B, SOA and BPM platforms
• Model-driven support for process improvements is included
• The vendor assumes maintenance responsibility, leaving more time for IT to support new business requirements

Recommendations
• Plan for a strategic update of your B2B capability
• Incorporate BPM technology for end-to-end value chain improvements
• Include SOA for enhanced reuse capability
– Plus support for Web services and governance
• Provide support for both EDI and XML
– Both will co-exist for many years to come
• Plan for the future, not the current need
