Abstract:
Nowadays, Service-Oriented Architectures (SOA) is widely spread in private organizations. However, when
transferring this knowledge to Public Administration, it is realized that it has not been transformed in terms
of its legal nature into organizations capable to operate under the SOA paradigm. This fact prevents public
administration bodies from offering the efficient services they have been provided by different boards of
governments. A high-level framework to perform this transformation is proposed. Taking it as starting
point, an instance of a SOA Target Meta-Model can be obtained by means of an iterative and incremental
process based on the analysis of imperatives and focused on the particular business context of each local
public administration. This paper briefly presents a practical experience consisting in applying this process
to a Spanish regional public administration.
