Actually I believe they have very good change management. Change
management is about tracking, documentating, implementing consistent
changes. It is possible to consistently implement something that is
broken.
By definition change is doing something different. But Innovation Control
doesn't have the same ring to it. I like change. Change has been very
good to me. But I also like informed judgement, not only by my vendor but
also by me.
