Business Interface			Business Interface is not directly represented in SysFEAT.

A Concept is defined through its essential characteristics which can be: 1) A Concept Property that represents some an immutable factual characteristic such as "name", "amount". 2) A Concept Relationship that represents relationships to other Concepts.

In SEAMF and BACM, contract is associated to Value Proposition and Product Capabilities.
