I am currently undertaking research for my PhD into how companies can best 
change there business processes and structure/s to align with their 
customers requirements. I am presently carrying out a number of 
benchmarking exercises with 2nd tier automotive suppliers in the UK. In 
order to establish a methodology for the change process I need to carry 
out benchmarking with "World Class" organisations that exist within highly 
competitive and rapidly changing customer environments. To this end I 
would be interested in talking to companies in the computing and software 
fields. A number of companies come to mind and effectively constiute a 
'wish list', these are listed below:-

Compaq computers,    Dell Computers,   Sun Microsystems,   Intel,
Oracle,   Texa Instruments,   Novell,  IBM,   Apple,   Digital,
HP,   Motarola,   Silicon Graphics,   EDS,   Cray computers,   Netscape,
Cyrix,     Microsoft.

Even if your company does not fit within this profile I would still be 
interested in taking you on board should you exist within a dynamic 
environment.

The benchmarking documentation is self contained and is designed to be 
used on a self assesement basis, however I will help in any way that I 
can in its completion.

All correespondence will be confidential and any published findings will 
be anonemous should the participants require.

All work carried out will be at no cost to the participants.
