[OPLINTECH] Outside Auditor???

[Bryan Harris]

I spent many years of my life as a technology consultant and performed
many audits during my career.  My advice is to choose a consultant who
will commit to a fixed fee for the project.  Some consultants want to
perform these services on a "share of savings" basis. In many cases, those
result in disaster.
