    Focus sharpened: 'Transformation' becomes three disciplines, Organisational, Process and IT Engineering. Behind them sits the principle we have worked with since we were founded, without ever spelling it out: the Theory of Constraints tells us where the bottleneck is, Conway's Law which structure it hangs on. That is why we work in three places at once.
