The benefit of the merger would is that services could be ordered, billed, complained about, and such, which today’s Frameworx does not support. I have also proposed that a future release of Frameworx may hold a domain that represents the merger of the current Product and Service domains, but would still contain these key concepts. Today Frameworx does not have the concept of a service offering, which I have written about before.

If we look back at Frameworx we may find that its future could be a bit different, too, in a positive way. (If you are wondering about all this back to the future talk take a look at the movie – Back to the Future.) Before I knew it back I was here in Plano (TX) only to realize again that a really good Philly cheese steak is near impossible to find back in my future. While there I had to try some of the food favorites that I enjoyed in my younger days, include a good slice of pie (of the pizza variety) as well as a Philly (Philadelphia) cheese steak or two. I attended a fast-paced TM Forum staff meeting in New Jersey last week which was close to the old haunts where I grew up.
