Hey Mike, Arthur Andersen Consulting is now a "premier partner" in Siebel's program. I haven't done the research about this, but I had remembered that Andersen already had a representative on Siebel's board. If I'm right about that, I'm surprised Andersen wasn't already a premier partner. If I'm misremembering about Andersen being on Siebel's board, and if they are instead on a competitor's board, that makes the situation even more interesting. Can anyone fill in the blanks of my memory? I work for Arthur Andersen and may have a little to add about the confusion. I haven't read the press releases, but I do know that Arthur Andersen and Andersen Consulting are almost totally separate companies/competitors now adays. Both perform SEBL implementations as far as I know, but Andersen Consulting is more of a powerhouse overall. The confusion may be resulting in that both companies are getting in bed with SEBL. You might want to look at the press releases again to see if they refer to Arthur Andersen or Andersen Consulting. My two cents. Grant P.S. Weren't we quibbling about SEBL back in the 30s? Jeeze. At least I'm in QCOM!!
