"Most electric utilities are still, for the most part, in the awareness / inventory stage of Y2k. Some are actually still fighting about "how to conduct inventory". There is very little upper management appreciation of the depth of the Y2k issue. That lack of appreciation translates into a significant deficit of executive level support (resources and funding) for any Y2k projects. Y2k program managers are frustrated at their inability to convince their local or executive management that Y2k is, indeed, an enterprise threatening problem. There is a sense of urgency at the Y2k program management level that is approaching panic, but the support is still not materializing.
