The year 2000 (Y2K) conversion process is labor-intensive and requires a great deal of planning, resources, and time. Organizations must realize the size and scope of the date-change problem and begin to implement a plan now if they are to make a successful transition into the next century.
CTR"s new report is a comprehensive collection of effective Y2K strategies, solutions, and technologies. The report outlines the steps that IT professionals must take in order to guide their organizations to Y2K compliance and covers the possible legal consequences of noncompliance, the importance of testing, and the critical issues to consider when staffing a Y2K compliance team.
There are several Y2K solution alternatives but the key to success lies in determining which specific solution, or combination of solutions, is the most appropriate. The report provides an examination of the most common Y2K solutions and conversion tools, including a brief description of each and their advantages and disadvantages.
The report includes in-depth analyses of valuable Y2K product and service vendors from around the world. The vendors are divided into 15 different product and service categories in order to make it easier to focus on those suppliers that can provide the most benefit to an IT manager.
The report provides IT managers with the resources necessary to design, implement, and test a Y2K conversion strategy, as well as detailed information on staffing a Y2K conversion team and where to go for outside help.
