Summary

The case study in this chapter showed that Electric Components, Inc. needs to adopt an Online Appraisal application to follow aggressive target-based performance policies. The shortcomings of the current system are highlighted in the case study. Because the new application defines the employee roles clearly, you can design features accordingly and implement the solution with the help of Web services and components. The setups in different countries can use their own databases for storing information.

The next chapter discusses how you can create components and the Web service along with the user interface.
