Changes in senior management were expected to affect IT strategy (00005) and in practice seem to have been influential. It was Tim's arrival at X that caused the previous mainframe proposal to be dropped (00697). It was George's influence that meant that IT was being taken so much more seriously by 1994 (00550, 00348) with him wanting to seriously reduce X's dependence on mainframe systems of the X-Group (00363, 00063).
