Logica VTS

Nothing on the VTS word-processors or the wonderful Kennet multi-user microcomputer?  :-(

You could search Google. -Mardus 05:54, 23 October 2006 (UTC)

recent revision

The most recent revision of this page changed the numbers of profit, revenue, etc by very large values. Are these numbers correct? As they were not by a registered user and offer no source, suspicious edits are liable to be reverted. Xcentaur 17:50, 7 November 2006 (UTC)

it may be worth noting that the IP range 158.234.*.* is entirely owned by LogicaCMG

Wow Claims

Since they sold off GT. I don't think LCMG can claim to process 2 out of 3 messages or provide 1 out of 4 MMSC globally now, can't they? --Bukhrin 04:29, 9 March 2007 (UTC)

Suggested changes

I am a representative of the Corporate Communications department of LogicaCMG. I would like to suggest the following changes to this article:

1. "The Company has made a number of acquisitions in the United States, Germany, Sweden, France and Australia; however none of these has proved to be very successful."

The last part of this sentence is not a fact. LogicaCMG's financial result statements (eg. 2006 Financial Highlights) have shown the positive results of LogicaCMG's acquisitions over the last few years with earnings per share up 43% in the period. More specifically, LogicaCMG acquired Unilog, France's fourth largest IT services provider, in September 2005 and WM-data, the third largest IT services provider in the Nordic region, in August 2006.

2. "LogicaCMG is a prominent IT consulting firm, but does not advertise widely and is shy of general public attention. As a consequence of this relative obscurity, ..."

This is an opinion (Wikipedia:Neutral_point_of_view). LogicaCMG is not shy of public attention and as a business services company does advertise in local markets and on trade shows. For instance, LogicaCMG started this year with an extensive advertisement campaign in newspapers and at European airports.

3. The 'wow factors' listed under Activities can be updated as follows (with citation links):

  • LogicaCMG supports some 300 telecoms operators in more than 130 countries. [1]
  • LogicaCMG produces the authoritative survey of the leading MES products, which cuts months out of the product search and selection process, accelerating projects and driving earlier savings for our customers. [2]
  • LogicaCMG’s financial software solutions enable the transfer of more than $5 trillion per day. [3]
  • LogicaCMG's systems have been fundamental to the regulatory transformation of energy markets around the world. [4]

More successes can be found on LogicaCMG's track record page —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 158.234.250.71 (talk) 13:08, 24 April 2007 (UTC).

The statement regarding £5 trillion per day needs citation. For example, this marketing brochure states £15 trillion and Vision magazine (logicaCMG marketing) states $20 trillion or £4 trillion in this Vision magazine. The 'trillion' figures have been extremely contentious in FSB for many years.

No longer a PLC

As of 4 June 2013, the entry still refers to Logica as a plc. It changed its name to Logica Limited on 26 September 2012 (see Companies House records for company number 01631639). This will have been as a consequence of its purchase by CGI. I believe that a plc has to have freely traded shares, and so a wholly-owned subsidiary can never be a plc. 81.111.150.33 (talk) 16:56, 4 June 2013 (UTC)
