Article: (TS/PI) Inter Relationships between Technical Solution and Product Integration by Hitesh Sanghavi 

https://seir.sei.cmu.edu - Objectives of TS and PI:

The objective of TS is to design (developing architecture, high level and low level/detail design), develop (coding or data conversion activity for Data migration), and implement (successful deployment at the customer’s site) solutions as per agreed and documented requirements (as per the requirements management and development activities/phase).
This includes products, PCs (programs or modules), and product-related lifecycle processes (user manual, design manuals etc). The objective of PI is to ensure planned successful assembling of the complete product (or services) from one or more, simple or complex PCs (or service components), ensuring that the product (or services), as integrated, functions properly as intended by design, and deliver/deploy the product (or services) at the end user/customer site.

Article: (RD) CMM® and CMMI® : Show Me the Value! by ASK Process, Inc.

www.askprocess.com - Abstract
Most organizations seek a rating against the Capability Maturity Model (CMM) or Capability Maturity Model Integration (CMMI) because their customers require it of them. But what about the majority of us for whom no such requirement exists? Is there any value in the CMM? Is there any reason why we should pay attention to what the CMMI says? In two words, Yes, and Yes!
 
Article: (TS) Which comes first in Technical Solutions - The Architecure or evaluating Alternatives? by Jeff Dalton

http://askthecmmiappraiser.blogspot.co.za - The CMMI isn't a process. It's a Process Model. The practices are not presented in sequence (although sometimes it appears that way). You may perform the SPs in any order that makes sense for your business, and sometimes you may even repeat SPs at a later point in your project.

Every organziation approaches this slightly differently. However, you might consider both places as an opportunity to evaluate alternatives.
