Introduction: Seldom a hot topic now, quality was the holy grail for business fifteen to twenty years ago. At the time, the automotive industry was learning the hard way from Japan that buyers could recognize quality and appreciate it enough to make it a priority in choice-making. The lesson was largely framed through the lens of manufacturing and the concepts of quality control developed by Edwards Demming – a prophet embraced by the Japanese, ignored in America and, suddenly, as important at home as he was abroad.

There are two main ways to apply a business rules management system (BRMS). The first is to consider a business rules approach as a way to gain developer productivity, for initial development, but even more for subsequent maintenance. Such productivity gains have proven to be significant – up to 75 percent reduction in ongoing maintenance. The second way to apply a BRMS is to focus on decisioning as a new and emerging class of business problem, and on a BRMS as a platform for automating and improving critical operational decisions.
We are at an exciting crossroad bringing technology and business together, as never before. Global collaboration and emerging corporate cultures are creating a new type of innovative enterprise: one that is based on services. Service orientation is about culture, a new service-focused approach of doing business as the modus operandi. Service orientation is also about technology, a standard and effective way of connecting businesses. Enterprises can be empowered to live up to the potential of becoming dynamic, agile, and real-time.
