Are you going to be using BMC Discovery at all for CMDB or have plans to move to any other module like SRM?
It's good to think it through and see if your future plans include other modules. For example, Discovery has it's own product cats OOTB that may not align with any custom structure you come up with.

Offline or to the group is great. Mostly, we are struggling with product categorization level 2. Should that be a business service offering as suggest in Malcolm Fry's book, and does that mean something like HR Services, IT Services, Account and Finance Services, etc.?
