Y2K crisis has companies counting the days to 2000 and wondering if they will be around for 2001.

January 5, 1998 Boston Business Journal
amcity.com

>>"David Allred, president of Photon, Inc., a firm that helps businesses implement strategies for Year 2000 Planning, blames management for the doomsday scenario." <<

>>"There are not enough people, there's not enough time left, there's not enough support at the top level," <<

>>"The real risk is for the medium-size companies where MIS directors are repeatedly going to upper management begging for people and resources. Most businesses put it off to the next quarter." <<

>> "Companies should be finished fixing their systems by December 1998, so they have one full year for testing and debugging. There is only one chance to get it right. Businesses need to do the work now" <<

Believe it or not, a little while ago someone acctually posted on this thread that:

>> GOSH! All these Fortune 500 Co.s must be too STUPID to choose CSGI, huh?

Companies that hire the brightest and the best from around the world and pay them commenseratly are just overlooking the possibility of using an "automated" Y2K tool. Yeah, right!

Hmmm, I wonder why they wouldn't hire CSGI after looking at that possibility? You know that have looked at that solution. And NIXED it." <<

---------------------------------------------------------------------

IT SHOULD NOW BE PERFECTLY CLEAR THAT THE BRUNT OF THE BUSINESS HASN'T EVEN COME IN AND MOST EXECUTIVES HAVE INDEED BEEN "STUPID" WHEN IT COMES TO ADDRESSING THE Y2K.

THERE ARE MANY IN UPPER LEVEL MANAGEMENT WHO ARE STILL IN DENIAL.

ANYONE WHO BELIEVE THE FORTUNE 500 IS ON TOP OF THE SITUATION, LET ALONE HAS GONE TO THE LENGTHS OF LOOKING AT VIABLE SOLUTIONS AND "NIXED THEM", IS DEAD WRONG

STAY TUNED!
