Creating backend services via Struts plugin

Question

I have a design problem where I'm redeveloping the front end of our application, and in an effort to reduce coupling and preserve tier separation, I've implemented a Struts plugin which is comprised of "service" objects that use the business delegates to return VO's created by EJBs's.
The idea is to minimize tier integration logic in the action classes.
My actual problem is this: I'm instantiating 2 main services upon login in an action (services created by plugin). Both service classes need to access data from the same VO that the middle tier will return. Any suggestions as to how I can have this VO visible to both services without calling the business delegate in the action?
Kind of confusing without seeing code, but any advice is really appreciated.

delegate in the action?You can store the value object in the servlet or application context. Both services can get to the object with calling a business delegate.
