    Hi,
    
    a local customer is looking for a planning/sheduling tool (sounds
    familiar?) which is constraint-based (the tool, not the customer).
    
    In his search he came across Charme (Bull) and did like what he saw,
    although the would prefer a VMS solution.
    
    What can we do? 
    I don't think we have a product comparable to Charme (do we?).
    
    The closest thing is the Scheduler from Brigitte Guimbal.
    Now, how can we sell that? 
    	- as a product?
    	- as an asset?
    	- as consultancy?
    	- not at all?
    
    Please advise.
    Thanks
    
    Luc

    Yesterday?  :-})
    
    Since Brigitte will be in Belgium on 6 may for the Scheduling seminar,
    we'll try to set up a meeting with the customer on the 5th (PM)
    and have THE expert with us to sell the idea.
    
    thanks
