Organisational changes: Multinational team

' ... There are two and a half multinational teams. There's one that is doing the underwriting enhancements ... led by Jim. There's Mr Stuart is doing what I think is called client servicing, which is essentially claims information talking to clients about what information, ie claims information we can provide to them. ... and Jim has got kind of a half team in London as well under Joy. ... He is doing the underwriting enhancements, the idea being that every three months we provide a new release which has got more good stuff in and makes my job impossible, which is all part of life's rich tapestry. Because I'm not going to deliver an accounting system until November. ... And she [Joy] is working for Jim with two other staff in London. As much to say, hey there is an underwriting team as anything else I think. X have concerns that because the team wasn't there with them they were not sure why everything took so bloody long. Having a team there may make them realise why it does. And that..how many has Jim, here there's probably about another 4 and here there's Ned and under him there will be six or seven and we've got Alan, the DBA, and the expert on Sybase and Unix and one of these people working for Ned, Ron, is becoming DBA number two. ...
