As you gather requirements, I would suggest looking at several mashups and the new generation of (workflow) tools they are supported by such as http://www.protosw.com/ (which offer an ipod a day in their mashup building contest) and Yahoo pipes http://pipes.yahoo.com/pipes/. A trivial discussion of mashups versus workflow is at http://grids.ucs.indiana.edu/ptliupages/presentations/Web20Mar04-07.ppt I am known for following fads too much but I think the rather complex web service workflow will face increasing competition from Mashup technology with its naturally larger customer and developer base.
