Our business process development is following a "lean" approach. This
approach in itself should help reduce the amount of effort that goes
into automation projects, especially as we make those efforts more
lean. I can see this now, and it appears to be a matter of
follow-through.
I am not sure yet how much SOA might contribute to this, but I can go
along with the hypothesis for now. I am sure we could spend some money
without much effort if we aren't paying attention.
