Maybe this will help although it's not a complete implementation of
what you have. The idea is to define rows and arrange your nodes into
those rows by using rank=same. Then make the row nodes and edges
invisible. It's also important to do the sequencing correctly, e.g.
in your example, if you just switch F -- E to E -- F, E will be to the
left of F as you want. But I don't know how to get the resources
subgraph to be treated as a node and thereby place it on the same row as F.
In any case, here's the current trial balloon:

#+BEGIN_SRC dot :file test2.svg :cmdline -Kdot -Tsvg
graph foo {
row1--row2--row3--row4 [style="invisible"];
row1, row2, row3, row4 [style="invisible"];
utilities [label = "Utilities"]
A
B
C
D
E
F [shape="rectangle"]
G
H
I
K
subgraph cluster_ta {
color=blue
{rank = same; L, M;}
L
M
}
{rank=same; row1 utilities A B C; }
{rank=same; row2 D E F;}
{rank=same; row3 G H I;}
{rank=same; row4 K;}
subgraph cluster_resources {
resources [label = "Resources"]
graph[color=red];
}
A -- F
B -- F
C -- F
A -- D
E -- F
F -- G
F -- H
F -- I
F -- K
K -- L
K -- M
L -- M
}
#+END_SRC
