Services' next pot of gold: the euro

update As Year 2000 fix profits start to dry up, a host of larger services companies are moving toward the next pot of gold: helping companies euro-proof their business and IT systems.

The euro began marching across Europe last month, though its use in this rollout is limited to noncash transactions. A second, larger wave of IT spending is expected before coins and bank notes are introduced in January of 2002.

Though the euro is struggling to compete in its new market, its impact on business is huge. Unlike Year 2000 projects, which often entail straight code fixes and a lot of straight technology work, the euro requires service firms to market a two-prong strategy to overhaul IT systems and corporate business plans.

Analysts say service companies tackling these consulting projects must couple business reengineering strengths with a strong regional presence in Europe and vertical expertise.
