You saying a cyberattack would be better than a **** up in the normal course of business?
Assuming they haven't been tooling up for this already I'd say "months" would be an optimistic timeline. A new software needs to be selected, an implementation team needs to be assembled, that team needs to learn old integrations to figure out how to plug in the new system. Any new / bypass processes need to be documented and refined. Cyber security needs to sign off. Then coding and configuration followed by a testing period with debugging prior to transition.YouBet said:They are back up and fully operational right now.Houstonag said:
Again, the original post. The unprofessional and insulting comments on TexAgs is disappointing especially when coming from AGs.
Any Ags have information on their status and turnaround plans?
Turnaround plans: they have to replace at least one IT system that is part of their core operational network. That will take several months to replace considering the integrations it probably has to other systems. And once you touch that one it probably means you have to pop the hood on others to some degree.

Typical benefits to a few and less to middle management and the pilots. All signed off by legal. A familiar story from the 90s in other industries. Remember?

And even then - you've got a hastily installed system that'll need debugging, integration point refinement, and process improvement work. "Fix the plane while you're flying it" is a phrase that's a common description to this but may be a bit on the nose this time.
For critical systems "Quarters" if not "years" is a more probable timeline.
