Scott, In reality, it is the partnerships with three corporations that will in the end get IAIC involved with the government. As I mentioned in the earlier post, M. Stabler, of CA, has been involved with the government committee on the y2k problem. Since IAIC is in partnership with CA and CA has over 300 sales people trained just to sell y2k products and services it is a natural for IAIC to get some major exposure to the gov't without it having a large sales force of its own. The same can be said of the partnerships with CACI and Mantech. Two other corporations with connections to the gov't. So the answer to the question you pose is that for the most part it is being done for IAIC. How many y2k companies can boast the size sales force of the three corporations I have just mentioned along with the connections they have in place from earlier business dealings with the gov't? IAIC is itself involved with some branches of the armed forces already, and has been quite successful from what has been reported. I would expect that most of the leverage that IAIC will get though is through the partnerships it has. Of course Neal would be able to give you a much better explanation of all of that(so keep on trying) and I am not an expert. I am just putting a few pieces of a "puzzle" together, and coming out with what appears to be a reasonable explanation of how IAIC is "exploiting such opportunities".
