The principals and staff of the company are former information services executives with Pan American World Airways and Eastern Air Lines. The company represents over 125 years of direct experience in computer and communications technology and management, specifically in the air transportation industry.

Consulting Operations   information systems technology's capabilities range from small, short term projects to large, multi-year efforts.

Typical of our large scale project management capabilities, we completed project management of the $11 Million PBX and Local Area Network portions of a 29 story "intelligent" headquarters building for a major US corporation. This project involved specification, vendor selection, negotiation, and project supervision for a 3000+ position PBX and 2500+ position Token Ring/Ethernet LAN. This client also awarded us similar project management responsibility for a major new corporate computer center in the Northeastern U.S.

The company was also selected to provide project management on the specification and bid phase of SITA's CUBES project, a global airline industry baggage management system. For this fast-track project we successfully supervised the development of specifications and the Request For Proposal. This RFP was issued to over 40 vendors worldwide using the facilities of our InternetRFP services.
