Implementing year 2000 date conformity in facilities management

Abstract

Examines the nature of the year 2000 date‐change problem and considers the implications for the operation of facilities. Describes a risk management approach which embraces both management and technical implementation. Emphasizes the need for clear understanding of what is meant by year 2000 conformity; how year 2000 conformity implementation should be managed by in‐house teams and in dealing with contractors. Highlights the level of understanding of the problem in industry at large and suggests a method for priortizing year 2000 conformity.
