We
have learned: resources are only useful if they
are applied effectively. Technology budgets
don't solve anything, yet they do provide the
necessary energy required to accomplish the
work.
That
energy must be coordinated, integrated and managed.
This is where IES excels. We turn ideas into
the building blocks for breakthrough performance.
To do this, we've learned how to turn focused
resources into results. So the net effect is
seen— on your bottom line.

IES Featured In the Outlook Series Audio Interviews On Enterprise Content Management (ECM) and
Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA) Technologies: IES's leadership in
helping clients implement ECM and SOA technologies has recently been recognized in
a series of in-depth Outlook Series audio interviews about these two different
information technologies. The most recent interview discusses how ECM functions could be re-architected to
operate as Web Services within an SOA framework:
Outlook Series Interview - "The Implications of Web Services Across the Document Lifecycle".
An earlier interview discusses how SOA technologies, particularly Web Services, can enable migration to
a target Enterprise Architecture (EA) while mitigating associated risks:
Outlook Series Interview - "SOA & Web Services Drive EA Migrations".
The very first interview conducted compares ECM and SOA, and considers how the two should
co-exist: Outlook Series Interview - "Can ECM and SOA Forge A Marriage?".
IES Proposes To HUD
How FHA's Home Equity Conversion Mortgage (HECM) Program Can Be Reengineered
To Better Preserve and Extend FHA's Share of the Reverse Mortgage Market: Based
on its considerable expertise in mortgage banking/insurance and with FHA itself, IES
has prepared a White Paper that describes how the HECM Program, the FHA reverse
mortgage product that it insures and is by far the leading offering in the rapidly growing
reverse mortgage market, can be reengineered under a Business Service Provider (BSP) model
for delivery of HECM-related services. Under a BSP model, FHA can take the opportunity to
move its automated support for HECM from a functionally limited system on an aging and poorly
integrated legacy platform to an improved portal and system that will be remotely operated
under a BSP service delivery model, and fit within HUD's and FHA's architectural direction of leveraging
SOA technologies, including Web Services and Business Process Execution Language (BPEL) technologies. This
IES White Paper can be accessed at this link:
"Forward Thinking on FHA Single Family Reverse Mortgages."
2006 Government
Computer News (GCN) Awards: On October 25, 2006, HUD & IES
were acknowledged for their efforts as innovators in e-Government
at the annual Government Computer News (GCN) Awards ceremony. HUD
initiated a study that found substantial errors being made in determining
the amount HUD pays on behalf of families receiving public housing &
Section-8 assistance. As a result, HUD developed and implemented the “Enterprise
Income Verification” (EIV) System to share state wage and unemployment information
with Public Housing Authorities for use in verifying tenant income. IES, working
closely with HUD, has helped PIH reduce improper payments by almost $1.8 billion.

see for yourself.
