HP have recently won a large service contract with a large Oil-and-Gas business in Canada. We've been contracted by the business, some for more than 7 years, doing software consultancy and maintenance. We have yet to see how HP will manage the transition, but we have so far little confidence the same level of service would be maintained. Not to mention that their development center is not in North America.
- mariusmg 15y agoSo ? Not being in North America makes it worse by default ?
- tamersalama 15y agoNever. The nature of the consultancy (at least with the current setup) is high-touch, but treated as rather mechanical in nature. Having a working team that rarely interacts with the client might not be the best setup.
