From the dawn of electronic computing, in most cases only 2 digits were used to represent the year in datefields (YYMMDD). Therefore, many applications will interpret the Year 2000 as the year 1900, causing failures in arithmetical computations, comparisons, sorting and data access. Last but not least, many programs may not take into account that the Year 2000 is also a leap year. Although the Y2K (Year 2000) problem is - fundamentally - a computer system design flaw, the potential impact is huge and wide-ranging. Computer systems have become increasingly critical to power business as well as safety applications. Software underpins a wide variety of products and services, both in the private and in the public sectors. BPI presents solutions, by addressing all your Y2K business and safety concerns - because there simply is no other choice than to be ready !!!
