 Provide definition of business technology;

organization/vendor/technology neutral view from The Open Group);
 Provide guidelines and mechanism to assess the business consequences and impact of not having SOA;
 Define a taxonomy for services landscape/portfolio, measures/metrics and SOA for Business Technology alignment
 Provide a framework for service portfolio management, to enable alignment of business and IT through the integration
of capabilities (both business and IT), service portfolios, and service categorization;
 Leverage the Open Group technical standard Service Integration Maturity Model (OSIMM), answering the most urgent
industry needs and provide inputs from SOA4BT Project to other SOA Work Group initiatives;
 Define SOA4BT measures, metrics and dashboards
