Agenda

• Background
• Overview of Application XML
• Value and Proof Demonstration of Mobile
  (Disconnected) Case Management Application
• Open Discussion

3
Background

• Over 15 years focused on Reuse and Assembly of
  Software
• Recognized by Dr. Charles Goldfarb published in
  his 5th Edition of the top selling XML handbook
• ObjectBuilders is the leading provider of
  Assembled Software Solutions.

Goal
How many of you would like to (need to) deliver
higher quality, more complex software solutions
faster and at less cost? We will show you the
way Peak your interest so that you further
explore the concept of Application XML and
Assembling Software Solutions.

Application XML Exceeds The Presidents Case
Management LoB Goals

• The Presidents LoB Initiative Vision
• Utilizing common solutions and data standards,
  case management information is easily and
  appropriately shared within and between federal
  and local agencies and with citizens.
• The Presidents LoB Initiative Goals
• Enable case management data to be shared
  efficiently within and across agencies.
• Improve effectiveness and efficiency of law
  enforcement, investigation, and civil and
  criminal litigation case management business
  processes.
• Identify common case management processes across
  components and agencies that will drive system
  and function consolidation.

6
What is Application XML?

• Just another XML Schema? Not to ObjectBuilders
• Application XML enables TRUE Application Assembly
• Application Assembly Consistent High Quality
  Solutions in Less Time and for Less Cost

7
What do I need to Assemble?

• Physical infrastructure (new and existing)
• Modules and Services (as opposed to objects and
  frameworks)
• Common architecture (XML and Web Services)
• Powerful productivity tools for Assembly
• Engines capable of rendering Application XML
  (called players)

8
What about Code?

• Code still exists. Application assembly or the
  application layer rides on top of coded services
  and existing infrastructure.
• The goal is to have ZERO code in the Application
  Layer

Three Tiered Architecture With Application Layer
Three Tiered Architecture

Available todayThe Proof

• How many of you would like to see a robust
  application (not a click through demo) that was
  created in 2 weeks and is 100 assembled?
• A totally disconnected Case Management
  application
• How workers are provided with a Mobile Packet
  that contains all the data, records, and
  materials needed to complete assigned tasks
• Integrate multiple data sources and leverages
  existing infrastructure
• Leverages like SQL Server and FileNet Workflow
• Open, Represented 100 in XML. Open, technology
  independent
• Works in thin, rich and full client. Future proof
• 100 reuse of base components. 100 reuse of
  standard modules. 90 reuse of templates and
  Solution modules and services as applicable

Introduction
The business problem - trying to create higher
quality, faster and less expensive business
applications This is the goal of any
manufacturer Computer Hardware has evolved
computers are now manufactured by assembling
interchangeable and reusable components Computer
Software has not evolved to the level of computer
hardware manufacturing ObjectBuilders provides
the solution A True Application Assembly
Platform

Technology Leadership

• Year 2003 Published in Dr. Charles Goldfarbs 5th
  Edition of the top selling XML handbook
• GMAC said that their R3 project (Created using
  ObjectBuilders products) was the most successful
  delivery as far as they can remember
• Delivered a 500 page custom business application
  30 days after the specification was completed
• ObjectBuilders applications have stood the test
  of time. Through an upgrade to the base player,
  customers have been able to move from Win 3.1 16
  bit to Windows 32 Bit to Distributed N-Tiered to
  Thin Client to Rich Client to Disconnect All
  without rewriting a single line of code

Challenges Solved by the LiveApp Player

• Application development and enhancement turn
  around is too slow
• Applications are not flexible, adaptable and
  scalable to changing business requirements
• Application needs to be created for specific
  deployment technology. Applications are not
  technology and vendor independent
• Packaged vs. Custom Custom solutions are very
  risky Packaged solutions force businesses to fit
  the package
• Multi vendor product integration
• Multi platform deployments
• Leverage existing corporate technology
  infrastructure
• Future Proofing
• Technology Independent

35
Case Study Media/Communications

• Challenge
• Thousands of partners multiple channels all
  unique contracts
• Need to implement new contracts rapidly to meet
  market demands (competitive, strategic, tactical)
• Need to integrate multiple internal and external
  data sources and production systems (Siebel,
  Oracle, Lawson, Portal, customer systems)
• Solution
• FinancialStream
• Originally custom LiveXML
• Results
• A single source to manage the entire contractual
  relationship
• Automated settlement, reporting auditing of
  financial obligations
• 80 of all enhancements handled through Admin
  Interface
