Keane Awarded Year 2000 Compliance Contract By Child Health Corporation of America biz.yahoo.com "To coordinate the multiple hospital assessment projects, Keane has established a Dallas-based program management office that will monitor analysis processes and communicate the status of the efforts throughout the hospital network and to CHCA. The program management office will also create and manage a repository for sharing system analysis information between member hospitals." NOTE* This looks like it will be a rather large project.

Steve, My team has divided all our applications into three catagories: Fatal ......... Business could not function. Critical ..... Conducting business would be severely hampered. Marginal .. Dates on reports, Dates on screens (except those used for computation), some .................. archived data, and everything else! Realistically, I think we will remediate the Fatal and some of the Critical before Y2K. The rest will be done AFTER Y2K! We have finished the impact analysis/assessment phase and will be using a combination of contract programmers and a remediation tool WHEN and IF the CFO "gets it." I also have had two contractors helping us with the assessment since our staff is stretched so thin due to programmers leaving. I believe all our overworked programmers will eventually leave to cash in on the Y2K situation. Norm
