Quotes from Articles and Individuals Jean
Mordo, CFO Otis Elevator - their EIS System impacts the bottom line "What
is the value of better information? It's hopefully better management.
Specifically, we spot trends faster, focus in on the key elements faster
and perhaps, I want to believe, we fix them faster. I can see that we
are doing much more work on more businesses, more acquisitions, more capital
appropriations, and more entities. It's better quality analysis than we
were doing five years ago, and with less people. So that's also a bottom
line impact - it's cheaper." Jean Mordo, former CFO Otis Elevator commenting
