3.2.2 Solutioning

This initial process can be assisted by domain experts who act as consultants and are facilitated by business and software engineers in order to formalize the requirements as a designed solution in the form of a specification.
The Infomet Product Centre offers a variety of products. Firstly, the products could simply be tools that enables the formation of a solution during the requirements analysis and design phase. It could be the database modules or software modules that actually make up part of the final solution.
In most cases, these products need to be assembled and extended through some form of shortened development process in order to make it operable in the particular environment of the client.
Most of the potential customers will be of the larger type of organizations, requiring a thorough analysis of their own environment which includes the interfaces and security mechanisms, the source of data, and the interaction with their other systems. This work is unavoidable during the implementation phase of a product, so it can be argued that most products are not necessarily complete. Thus it requires customization to a greater or lesser extent.
The prime product is usually some engine consisting of a database portion, an information extraction and presentation mechanism. The database usually has to be sourced directly from the various production systems of the organization. This core is called the Generic Business Model (GBM), because of it’s ability to represent various types of businesses onto the same generic core. This makes our offerings exceptionally flexible.
