Re: [BPCS-L] Adopted Rights

Even without OSG, it is rare for a company to be without any tech support 
whatsoever ... there are many vendors with reputable tech support in 
competition with SSA GT, and we are using one of them.  You should ask the 
one your company uses for guidance.

What you say is true for us at 405 CD, but BPCS security was significantly 
re-written for V6 to fix many of the V4 gripes.  There is a conversion path 
for V4 to fix BPCS security.  Several vendors offer help ... You can get a 
3rd party to do the conversion for you for a few thousand bucks.  I think 
the challenge is in convincing higher authority that we need this, and that 
this is the most economic way of making sure it gets done right, missing no 
nuances.

This has implications as auditor requirements get tighter.
