Y2K Project Review Services:

We offer a full range of consulting services, from high-level planning and assessment work to low level programming services. The overall objective, of course, is allow you to draw from our experience to improve your chances of successfully completing critical Year 2000 work on time. Let ACTS give you an independent and candid assessment as to how thorough and realistic your existing plans really are.

Our clients are companies who want to know sooner rather than later if they are headed for trouble. For example, assuming (and hoping) that you already have Y2K work underway, ACTS will review and evaluate your current Year 2000 migration strategy, looking to identify oversights or problem areas. We will study areas such as your methodology, plan components, or phase schedules, and make specific recommendations on how to improve your current conversion plans.


Y2K Programming Services:

ACTS has highly-skilled programmers that, subject to availability, could help you either by working with your own staff, or simply work independently on specific programming tasks that you assign. ACTS can provide training and supervision of junior and intermediate programmers, or perform the actual coding to make applications Year 2000 ready.
