[QUOTE="TechGrrl, post: 580577, member: 4932"] We have never had a successful project from an outsourcer. Accenture and IBM have been here before...never worked. Ask the poor guys who dealt with the disasters visited by Accenture upon the original Hub2000 projects; UPSers had to clean up the mess. Ask the guys dealing with Boeing and WiPro for Crew...dealing across 12 time zones on a complex business project is a nightmare. Heck, half the time we can't communicate between two floors in the same building... This will work out the same way. CIO and CEO don't get it. COKE moved apps from ATLANTA and INDIA to LOUISVILLE after the whole outsourcing thing proved to be an illusion. Fortunately, Coke is in one of the buildings across from the AGB, so it will be a short walk to drop off resume's American business has been blinded by the bean counters. Logic and good sense have flown out the window. Wall Street rules, and they aren't interested in anything past the next quarter's earnings call. We should have gone private when the stock hit $38.
