Segovia was also an early adopter of the DoD Architecture Framework (currently DoDAF v. 1.5) and has embraced Federal development methodologies as they have continued to evolve their products and services to be responsive to "business" drivers across all levels of the government.

"As a private sector partner, we welcome the opportunity to participate with the Federal CIO community in evolving and maturing industry Service Orientation competencies," said Mike Wheeler, Chief Executive Officer for Segovia. Segovia's existing technical solution is based upon a fully compliant Net-Centric Environment (NCE) and architecture that imbeds all elements of Net-Centric Operations (NCO).

Segovia provides an integrated, interoperable, and highly scalable network solution that enables, and is enabled by, an IT system built on a Service Oriented Architecture (SOA). Bundled as an end-toend lifecycle management solution, or unbundled into selected IT units, Segovia's products and services exploit SOA competencies.

Throughout a rigorous "Plan, Build, Manage, and Evolve" lifecycle, Segovia emphasizes the application of process, procedure, best practice, policy, standards, and protocols. Segovia is also fully aligned with the best practice framework for IT service management defined by the Information Technology Infrastructure Library (ITIL).
