the large multinational are consolidating their domain and
technical knowledge as reusable assets to serve their customers
better and be competitive in the market with solution variants
targeted to the domains.
The software services companies catering to large contracts
now are seeking unified and governed application creation
and delivery process in the software development and maintenance
cycles.
Software
services companies are targeting to grow in non-linear terms,
where the revenue is not directly associated with the headcount.

companies on fixed price basis are increasing; this requires
them to improve on their productivity and turnaround time
beyond the current levels.

the enterprise boundaries through initiatives such as SOA
which help them to be agile and faster to the market.

can govern the end-to-end software asset harvesting, creation,
consumption and change cycle by capturing the asset meta-data
and unifying the various sources of assets and artifacts.

managing the asset lifecycle management practice, standards
