"The reasons MPS selected SunGard initially are the same reasons we would again select them if we had the process to do over again. It is primarily the fact they offered MPS one stop shopping; they had developed the software, they were willing to implement the software, and they were willing to host the software. In other words, they were willing to tie their success to our success.
I think that overall, what mattered is the people at SunGard made the difference. They’ve been willing to bend, and we’ve been willing to bend and meet each other halfway. Because of our willingness to both be flexible, we were able to establish a relationship of trust."
