2.0 Purpose and Scope of the Evaluation
Barrington Research Group (BRG), Inc. was asked to provide WD senior management with an independent assessment of the WD SDS 2000 and considerations for the development of SDS 2003. The evaluation was to examine the relevance, success and effectiveness of WD's SDS 2000 from its development through its implementation. BRG's evaluation focused on the time period from late 2000, when WD's SDS 2000 was written, to July 2003, when preparation for SDS 2003 began. As managers will use this evaluation to make decisions about directions for SDS 2003, lessons learned from WD's SDS 2000 were also considered.
