TPRO has NO factory floor competitors that they know of with a COMPLETE SOLUTION. (And none I could find, doing an extensive internet search ... if anyone can find something that I, the president of TPRO, or Scott, doesn't know about ... let me know!)

Fluor Daniels has NO software; may actually team up with Topro in offering solutions. Same with Raytheon.

Manufacturers May Grind Gears over Y2K Dates

Leading manufacturers have raised factory automation to the point where the factory itself is almostone big machine ..... But for all the innovation and productivity of manufacturing companies today, Y2K
is set to sound a discordant note among plant managers more attuned to highly orchestrated plant operations.

Clearly, there's much at stake. So why does the scope of so many corporate Year 2000 programs stop at the factory gate? Why don't plant engineers -- technical people to the core -- respond immediately immediately to a major technical threat in their midst? Why is the Y2K marketplace focused so completely on legacy administrative systems? Why are manufacturer's so slow to respond to a clear and present business danger?

Fluor Daniel Systems Integration Director Ken Owen tried to answer these and other questions for an SPG conference audience last week in Chicago.

"Companies must survive," Owen says, "This is not a game and it's not going away -- it's a survival issue. So don't overdo the theoretical aspects of this situation. Do what you need to do and move on."
