So let's say you have an E Business Suite implementation, you run Financials - link this with Projects and Procurement and have Teleservice for when your suppliers want to talk to you. Now you have decided to embrace the internet and want to make your system work for your providers in that environment.
Here is a high level plan to do this:
1) Add iSupport, iSupplier Portal and EMail Center to enable the web and email channels
2) Add the Identity and Access Management Suite to ensure world class security
You may also want to integrate these business processes with other non-Oracle processes out there
3) add the SOA Suite for Business Process Management and bring the automated and people processes together using ADF to interact with E Business Suite
Follow the links for more information on the products that enable this

One of the benefits of acquiring products with a view to how well they fit together is that quite often two good products come with a ready made integration.
It's a couple of years since Siebel was acquired, but only in March 2008 did we announce the purchase of testing products from Empirix.
For those in the know, this represents a solution for testing Siebel both for load and functionality. More information is available in the Application Quality section of our Enterprise Manager solution:
http://www.oracle.com/enterprise_manager/application-quality-solutions.html
You will note that the solution is for all web based applications. For Siebel there are accelerators as well that understand the application.

Enjoy!
