This came in on a press release today. If anyone can decipher it, or understands what the hell the product/service is based on this description, drop me a line...

Is this taking the piss? The first sentence isn't even in proper English.

Jean-Marc,
Not being funny, but that explanation doesn't make sense.
I'm sure Sogeti is good at what it does. I just don't think anyone can find out what it does based on this type of explanation.
Thanks for commenting,
Adrian

Wow.. corporate speak, cool. Is there a google translate for corporate speak already?
Here's a stab: IBM say Sogeti is very good. Sogeti and IBM have combined a tool (RATIONAL) and a method for testing software(TMAP) to make it easier to test well. The tool supports the process, the process supports the tool. IBM also likes Sogeti because they helped clients adopt Rational tools.
Should I apply for a marketing job already?

Nicely said RikC.
Methinks in another 5-10 yrs that type of corporate gibberish will hoepfully have disappeared as the Web2.0/Facebookers now joining the company start to make their inroad in enterprise-land!
