Melissa,

one-stop-shopping

You hold itwo, if memory serves me right. So do I. As well as psft. I'do not understand what psft does in the supply chain sector. But I worry, whether the psft effort will eventually outdo itwo. I2 maybe a great company in their field. What I worry about more, is the tendency do do one-stop-shopping for critcal technical stuff (the same idea that helps Cisco a lot). The one-stop-shopping of course favours the vendor offering a lager variety, then the specialist with only one product.

Also the responsibilities are easier to attach to one vendor, when You buy software from one vendor, against a boatload full of pieces, You then have to integrate.

Any comments?

Lutz
