This appears to have had a profound effect on management of the new company. Things got so bad at Westward that TSW ended up taking over from the company in the August. TSW’s bid offered a plan for something bold and refreshing for the area, and also a respite to the IBA from the problems the little company had brought them.
The chances that they will hand over to you, lock, stock and barrel their archive and staff are also low.īut Westward had been doing a very good job of pulling itself apart. The chances of displacing an existing company are actually very low.
