Currently, there are a lot of articles written on the theoretical side of CBSE, but these theories in general did not reach the state of practice. There are still too many problems to which this paper presents a practical case where CBSE technologies and methods are applied to different assets in a corporation. We discuss how we, as a small consultant company, have chosen to deal with some of the CBSE problems. We feel that the term software-component must be expanded so that we can use it to encapsulate those assets, not just binary software. We will also introduce a "component environment," a prototype for handling different types of components.
