Tech Master, Happy to do so.

1. ALYD has publicly stated that they have 19 contracts. There has also been remarks on this thread and I believe that it can be confirmed that the DuPont project is about 1 billion lines by itself. CSC (Computer Science Corp.) is using PTUS for their part of the DuPont project and it has been stated that ALYD should get the lion's share of this project. I estimated ALYD to get 1/2 of the Dupont project. ALYD has also stated they have two bank contracts that should be approx. 100 million lines each. Add the M.D project, 3M project, Nabisco, and Toyota, among others.

DuPont = 500 Million lines
Two Banks 200 Million lines

Just between DuPont and the two 100 million line banks, we have 700 Million lines of code. That leave 16 other contracts which include 3M, Mc.Doug., Nabisco, and Toyota, to name a few. I think that a approx. figure of 1 billion lines in the current pipeline would be fairly accurate.

2. Jeff Mitchel posted figures that showed that ALYD's current capacity is 220 million lines per year. To produce that capacity they need 22 teams of 5 people which = 110 people

** note currently ALYD has over 250 employees. I still don't know where the other 140 people come in. **

If we do the math we see that there is only 2.5 years left until Jan. 1, 2000. At current capacity rates ALYD can only produce
550 million lines of code in that time. (2.5 X 220 million capacity)

They would need to more than double their current capacity to just be able to handle the current contracts in their pipeline.

Regards.
