So if they're admitting to problems with 100 revisions i wonder what the real figure is ? 150 ? 200 ?

Personally with all their wonderful new delivery methods and flawed computer programmes i can't see what they've achieved that they wouldn't have achieved far more cheaply by scrapping missort runs and adding 30 minutes to each delivery via a simple desk top revision

You're right it's unlikely that 100 is the true figure.
Many offices will be hiding the true extent of the problem through bad practice and excessive overtime.
As for what these "scienced up" revisions have achieved.....they have proven that bluster and bullshit is no substitute for actually knowing what you're taking about.

Given the option of designing a service that would encompass all the requirements necessary for the change in traffic and its makeup has BT 2010 really answered those needs and could we have done better as a workforce to change and improve without these draconian measures?

It's all right.
The Angard fiasco and the Colleagueshare fiasco will cover the cost of the planner fiasco.
The societies of consumption and squandering of material resources are incompatible with the idea of economic growth and a clean planet.

Mind you we could all pop round to his place for dinner one day and see if we could exert some influence (It seems to be the fashion these days.)

Perhaps a moderator could change the title of the thread:
