  1. Focal Communication Point (think: TWiki)
  2. Robust and Scalable Backend to Ensure Proper Archiving (think:  mySQL)
  3. Provides Detail Content for Various Groups Within the Org
  4. Gives the Automated Capabilities for Extracing, Exchanging, Storing, Updating, Processing, Broadcasting of Information
  5. Helps Streamline and Enforce Software Processes/Procedures
  6. Provides Automated Reporting Mechanisms

Think of the CFW as a centralized location where most if not all groups within the Org stores and maintains their development activities and schedules.  A lot of the companies are beginning to maintain an internal TWiki site, but oftentimes these sites becomes a big mess with outdated and irrelevant information.  Imagine the usefulness factor when it is properly structured, maintained, updated, and enforced based on the list of framework requirements above.
