Re: Ten Imperatives that Enable Business Strategy

Team,

I thought this list below somewhat muddled here.  Good points but not corrolated
and not prioritized.  It's almost if there's a missing third column of "Goals /
Requirements" that you need to cross-reference and these items should all be in
a cross tabulation matrix and not a simple list?!?

Anyway - we probably need to do awareness to these folks (and others) on OASIS
BCM and how it relates to their readers needs...
