10 Minutes with Andrew Davies
There was a much greater need for efficiency and responsiveness, which large corporate companies would find difficult to respond to in a timely manner. Corporates have many advantages but making swift decisions and moving quickly to meet new requirements were definitely not part of their DNA.
