At Maxima we know that a solution is more than just the technology, it is also about offering best in class services, support and education. Maxima’s engagement framework recognises this and is designed to provide our clients with a full lifecycle approach to achieving Service-Oriented Architecture.

• We work with you to help create a vision, identify where the value lies and then validate and articulate it to your organisation.
• Maxima will then draft a roadmap of how that vision will be delivered so that buy-in can be gained from all key stakeholders.
• We will then create a detailed execution plan and implement the solution, gaining acceptance of the working model.
• Finally we will manage the environment to agreed service levels, and then upgrade and evolve as appropriate.

Through a Service-Oriented Architecture approach Maxima can deliver unparalleled flexibility so that you can quickly adapt and easily connect with clients, partners, and suppliers, as your market and business requirements change.

Maxima has been working with Progress technology for 20 years and is one of the most experienced partners the UK. Our consultants have a deep understanding of working with Progress technology, its Sonic Enterprise Service Bus (ESB) and Sonic MQ - the industry's most robust and resilient standards-based enterprise messaging system, and are veterans of over 300 implementations.

Benefits

• Broad-scale application connectivity and interoperability
• Easier alignment of IT around the needs of the business
• Enhanced reuse of existing applications and data, minimizing custom software development
• Reduced integration costs
• Reduced vendor lock-in and switching costs
• Deep domain and industry experience from a partner you can trust.

Whilst the benefits of a flexible and open IT infrastructure are undeniable, achieving such a ‘holy grail’ can seem daunting at first. With this in mind, and with the benefit of 20 years experience working with Progress technology, Maxima has designed a Readiness Assessment workshop. This workshop engages with the key stakeholders to understand their drivers and objectives, as well as the technologies and platforms used. It will also include a health check to establish how mature their initiatives are, what the possible inhibitors might be and how far they have to go.

Maxima will then consider how through using our SOA management toolkit, in conjunction with our library of design patterns and adaptors, this process can be accelerated to drive out value whilst minimising risk. The output will show an organisation exactly what needs to be done, the challenges faced and the benefits to be gained. Maxima are happy to offer this exploration stage free of charge to those organisations who engage with us to deliver a Service-Oriented Architecture.
