UH OH!!!! NOT GOOD.

Just found out from a friend at Ford that Hewlett-Packard designed and manufactures GM's low cost Worldwide diagnostic tool. Hewlett-Packard is one of the 6 or 7 companies competing for the ADS contract for Ford.

HP also happens to make the Service Bay Diagnostic System (SBDS) for Ford (4,025 units in North America) and provide's Ford with a lot of SBDS software and hardware support.

I guess that one would have to consider them a solid contender for this future business.

Heard HP has a very good working relationship with Ford. Does anyone know if Genrad has a good working relationship with Ford? Couldn't hurt if they did.
