Joe McKendrick

Gartner’s advice: start small, identify specific business benefits, and focus on achieving them.

Here are some points that can be measured to determine if service orientation is delivering, courtesy of Gartner:

1. Improved efficiency, particularly with respect to business processes execution
2. Lower process administrative costs
3. Higher visibility on existing/running business processes
4. Reduced number of manual, paper-based steps
5. Better service-level effectiveness
6. Quicker implementation of processes
7. Quicker time to market
8. Shorter (overall) project cycles
9. Overall reduction in the total cost of application development and maintenance
