Untamed Swuid, re Wonderware and Temps: >>However, you have completely discounted the impact from sub-contracting and temp hiring. The fact that TAVA will keep the employee count down to a sustainable amount after Y2K is not relevant to the number of people that TAVA can provide and charge for remediation. Remember, TAVA has already said that it has a relationship with one of the largest temp agencies, one that is standing by ready to supply resources on a GLOBAL basis.<< I had not included this, you are right. Right now I don't have enough information even to make a broad guess at the potential this has for the bottom line. Anyone want to have a go? I'll try to get started, these numbers are complete guesses, I will try and be reasonable to optimistic: 1 TAVA employee (knowledgeable, skilled) can leverage 2 temps. TAVA makes gross markup $200/day per Temp 200 TAVA average full time y2k for 24 months again Earn 200 x 2 x $200 x 500 days x 80% = $32 million, or $1.60/shr pretax comments? >>And you seem to be unaware that Wonderware itself is in the process of training 1,000 workers to use PlantY2KOne.<< I am unaware... I knew they were doing some training, no idea it was on that scale. Where can I find the 1000 number?
