Today's Tools Are Seriously Deficient

Today's software development tools are not designed to deliver maximum value to the business across the life of the business solution. They lead the business to invest in the production of assets that either cannot be re-used at all or alternatively, can be re-used only at the coding level, and even there only under a strict set of implementation conditions. Deficiencies include:

• Poor division of labor - they do not cleanly separate business concerns from technical concerns; most are designed to implement something from a non-existent specification, not discover or understand the business problem
• Disparate - they do not integrate; they were never architected under a single vision but rather cobbled together from various acquisitions
• Complex - today's standards-based tools do not filter the essential elements from the standards so that users can be productive by focussing on the business problem, not wading through a plethora of unwanted features
• Labor intensive - they cannot harvest architectural design patterns so prevalent in software frameworks and best practices today, resulting in far too much manual detailed design and coding
• Platform dependent - many can generate at most skeletal code, and those that go further cannot automatically generate solutions to any implementation target of choice
