Has anyone heard of a Life Insurance company in upstate NY who
recently (within the last year) purchased ALL-IN-1 to be used
for a "Work In Process" application?
My customer mentioned that he read about this in "Information
Week" magazine in the section immediately following "Letters
to the Editor". I've checked back issues for the past 6 months
and have come up empty handed.
Looking for a lot with only a little . . .

No direct answer to your question. Just a couple of questions back
to you.
Is your customer looking for a W.I.P. solution to a particular problem?
What do they mean by "Work in Process" applications? In ALL-IN-1,
that could mean System for Sales and Marketing, which does track
sales items as they proceed. The term "Work in Process" can also mean
or refer to a system which not only tracks, but which also schedules
and controls processes through a series of functions and activities.
We are, as you probably know, working on a major Work in Process
platform which will have wide applicability in the Insurance Industry.
It is not a point solution for, for example, Image processing control.
It will position us uniquely in the industry because of its scope
and its modular flexibility. Each application of this technology
will be custom fit to the customer's needs and requirements, giving
the customer a competitive advantage.
So it is worth exploring with the customer what it is that interests
them in W.I.P., and what they understand about it.
