two mangos

this morning, instead of going to SMU, i have to go to this new assignment.
apparently the project that i thought was a brand new one, was actually the old project done by sdi. it was a small distribution company, who main business is selling white goods such as air conditioner, refrigeration, plasma tv and so on. after almost a year since they go lived, a new person has been incharge of reviewing and gathering financial report, which lead to the discovery of issues related to the system implementation.

when we came to sdi early for a quick breifing on that matter, the previous project manager tried to explain that what was being address earlier by the client side was not totally correct. Though, i doubt since i know their reputation (sdi known for their notorious reputation), i wouldn't be surprise if what has been told by the client was true, and now they ask us to clean up their mess. So typical of SDI!

after a short briefing on what was going on, we head to mangga dua, and meets with the client. they don't look very happy, and i wouldn't blame them.

anyway, after 2 hours meeting, we finally come to a conclusion and told them to prepared some sort of review on what they want the system to work, and what business process need to be change or even scrap.
