          b. CESPN Report on Cost Savings, Oct 7, 1997
          c. CESPN Report on Communication Metrics, Mar 3, 1997
 

Dear Mohan,


Per

our discussion
this morning, ref a, here is the report issued by the San
Francisco District (CESPN) on

Communication Metrics
dated March 28, 1997.




On Oct 8, 1997 CESPN issued a follow up report showing

cost savings.




The basic idea is that adding a proactive role to organize, analyse, align and
summarize information reduces mistakes.  Putting

intelligence
on the Internet
makes it fast and easy to use.
Meetings
are a primary application.




Sincerely,


THE WELCH COMPANY






Rod Welch
