Vendor Solution Offerings

From MIKE2 Methodology

Vendor Solution Offerings are vendor-specific recommendations for solving problems in information management. Whereas other Core Solution Offerings tend to be logical in nature, Vendor Solution Offerings are physical as they focus on implementation approaches with specific vendor products. Key topics covered by Vendor Solutions include:

• Problem addressed by Solution
• Relationship to the SAFE Architecture
• Relationship to activities and tasks of the Overall Implementation Guide
• Differentiating features
• Case Studies
• Specific skill sets required for implementation of the technology
• Migration path to solution
• Use of Open Standards

Vendor Solution Offerings may be focused across the Technology Backplane or may relate more to business problems for which information management is especially critical.
