I'm hoping that a hardcore FDX follower can help me out here. I have found an RFP for a Business Opportunity that starts like this

InformationWeek and FDX International Transmission Corp. (FITC), a wholly owned subsidiary of FDX Corp., invite potential suppliers to submit proposals to FITC with a network appliance solution.

FITC is a communications technology integration services company developing plans to implement Internet service provider services to employees of FITC and possibly other affiliated enterprises. The potential combined employee base represents a population of more than 140,000...

The finalists for this were HP, NCD, and Wyse. I have circumstantial evidence that NCD may be a big winner in this contract...if in fact it is for real.

Much thanks in advance.

Jim
