Being able to design information systems to an
untouched domain, without the burden of existing information systems,
especially legacy systems, is often seen as a dream of most information system
professionals. Uncharted domains are
anyway scarce, and often such greenfield projects turn into brownfield
projects, also to projects where existing structures severely constrain the
development of new systems. In this
article we discuss the concepts of greenfield and brownfield domain engineering
and software development, and reflect their possible messages to the
re-engineering of the Finnish health- and social care ecosystem currently under
way. In our fieldwork we could identify a lot of need and wish for greenfield
domain engineering in the Finnish health- and social services delivery. As well we found a lot of brownfield elements
inhibiting change. Our proposal for the future is a ecosystem approach, where
new and established elements could live together in a self-governed balance.
