Areas of Expertise

Artemis Alliance offers a complete Business Rules Management practice including:

Business Analysis and Business Process Engineering: Artemis understands that sound requirements definition, analysis, and business process engineering are at the heart of successful projects. We help organizations build successful solutions by first understanding their real needs; from business goals and strategies to detailed business operations to existing system and integration issues. We use this knowledge to articulate a project vision coupled with a strategy for its realization. Artemis-led projects succeed because we know the outcomes from the outset.

Enterprise Architecture: Artemis assists the client with a large IT infrastructure to develop and document its enterprise architectures (EA), creates functional EA practices within the organization, and provides expert evaluation of the organization’s existing EA practices and directions. Artemis applies our broad experience with service-oriented approaches, messaging, business process management, workflow, and other enterprise technologies to the technical and business issues that should drive enterprise architecture. We understand that EA must serve real business needs and can never be successful as architecture for architecture’s sake. Artemis creates an enterprise architecture that quickly becomes an effective foundation for IT productivity and efficiency for the client.

Application Architecture, Design, and Development: Artemis provides application architecture, application design, and software development leadership to projects based on J2EE, including WebLogic, WebSphere, and JBoss. Our unique skills in user interface design allow us to construct rich user interfaces in complex distributed environments, using the java/swing, and Microsoft .NET platforms. We also specialize in projects based on TIBCO, Vitria, Borland products, and the leading Business Rules Management and Inference Engines.

Software Engineering Process: Artemis believes that a well-understood software engineering methodology or process that is embraced by the practicing organization is one key to software project success. We also know that no one process fits every situation. We approach process improvement from the standpoint of fundamentals: making sure that a process is requirements-driven, accountable, testable, and efficient, regardless of whether it’s based on agile methodology, RUP, XP, waterfall, or anything in between. In all cases, our goal is to improve and extend our client’s existing software engineering skills, rather than “sell” a particular canned approach.

While our primary focus is on Business Rules Management, Artemis Alliance is equally adept at applying our expertise to the widest possible array of IT projects.
