Steve Epner BSW Consulting St. Louis, Mo. "Y2K or Year 2000 problems will force revolutionary and unknown changes on all business to business commerce. It is already too late to fix existing systems, so economic triage will be necessary. Survival will require quick, technology-based responses among closely aligned partners. Delay will not be an option. ÿÿ"Shared information in standard formats will encourage the development of new ways to do "things.'' Duplicate effort, waste and therefore dollars will be removed from the channel. Simply shifting costs to others will not be an option. ÿÿ"The new work force will be technically literate and will demand access to the tools they have grown up with. The information worker will have arrived. Minimum wage employees will not be an option. ÿÿ"Options for success will be found. The winners will be decision-makers willing to look at the future as something other than an extension of the past.''
