I think we have to put more emphasis on how important Topro's engineers will be to their success.
I am associated with a well known, and I believe well respected corporation that is addressing the embedded chip problem in their plants.
The comment that struck me the most came from one of the leaders of the effort to get a handle on how embedded chips will affect their factory floors.
He said, and I paraphrase here, 'we've got to find and retain engineers like Mr. X and Mr. Y because they really know their stuff'.
Good knowledgable people will probably be, in my opinion, the most important aspect to resolving the compliancy issue with respect to embedded chips.
Compliance status of non-IT equipment with embedded chips isn't the only issue. After all the equipment has been inventoried, formal, legally binding enquiries must be prepared for submission to vendors. The problem so far, is that about half have not responded, slowing the process down.
This company also is making it a major point to research the legal aspects of the problem. Who is liable? And under what circumstances?
If every corporation is worried about liabilty like this one, then the alliance with AON is as big as we first thought.
I find it rather interesting that this company has on one of it's Web pages links to 18 sites that consider the legal aspects to the y2k issue. One of the links is to it's corporate law department.
Some corporations may not think y2k is a problem. But can they take that chance?
