This sounds amazing. How did it turn out?

  Still running a decade later. Of course, now they've lost the people who designed that system, and are hard up to keep it updated. Like most large corporations, they 'outsourced' IT years ago. Which means, they lost their IP for their business processes to a revolving door of contractors. My sister is retired, but predicts the collapse of the US business sector due to critical process failures within a few years. Its a pretty dismal outlook.

    Can you go into any more detail about that or have any related resources about such a potential collapse?

    What would the "collapse of the US business sector" look like?

      Can't sell product; can't manufacture or source parts; schedules start extending out to infinity?
