COSM |
To our knowledge, COSM is the ONLY approach scaling from the smallest project to the management of a whole IT portfolio, assuring a common conceptual framework and continuous flow from business strategy down to individual projects. The approach is available in two offerings: COSM Project and COSM Enterprise. COSM Project provides the “what and how” required to manage, architect, develop, test, outsource, integrate, buy, migrate, and even retire your applications. It is not only a best-in-class agile and scalable methodology: it is a full-blown component-based approach addressing development and management processes, all the architectural viewpoints with detailed patterns and frameworks, as well as the necessary support. COSM Project has been applied and matured since 1992. Adopted by small teams and large corporations, and by several software product vendors, it can be adapted to the level of agility and formalism best suited to your environment and organizational maturity. The first approach to be component-based, it has delivered across business domains including manufacturing, ERP, supply chain management, CRM, insurance, finance, banking, transportation, HR, and even real-time embedded systems. Today our customers are leveraging COSM to deliver on the unique enterprise and project challenges of Service Oriented Architectures, Web Services, security, and product-line development. At its core, COSM embraces model driven architecture to ensure solution longevity, and fastest time-to-market. To guide platform specific implementations, COSM provides pragmatic technology centric best practices addressing the unique challenges of J2EE, .NET, and XML-related technologies.

It is a second generation enterprise-level approach, covering IT Strategy, Enterprise Architecture, and creating an active link from Business Strategy down to day-to-day IT Management and individual projects. It supports medium-large enterprises looking for ways of align business and IT, reduce their IT costs, rationalize their IT portfolio, manage IT as a business, and much more. COSM Enterprise includes enterprise-level principles, guidelines, blueprinting approaches, architectural and IT governance processes, business modeling, enterprise-level patterns, portfolio management techniques, enterprise-level technical infrastructures and bus, and more. The application of COSM Enterprise enables corporations to effectively acquire, outsource, integrate, connect, develop, modify, operate, and retire the elements of an IT Portfolio while progressively aligning to your IT Strategy and Enterprise Architecture.
