The SOA Working Group contributes to the Open Group mission of Boundaryless
Information Flow, by developing and fostering common understanding of SOA in order to facilitate alignment between the business and information technology communities. The Ontologies for SOA project will provide part of that contribution in the following specific ways. It will:

More precisely define the concepts, terminology and semantics of SOA in both business and technical terms, in order to:
Create a foundation for further work in domain-specific areas,
Enable communications between business and technical people,
Enhance the understanding of SOA concepts in the business and technical communities, and
Provide a means to state problems and opportunities clearly and unambiguously to promote mutual understanding; and
Potentially contribute to model-driven SOA implementation, which will facilitate SOA adoption.
