Andersen Consulting has a contract to design and build a computer system that will direct goods countrywide for MAV Hungarian State Railways: the $6m three-year contract involves the systems integration end of the accountancy practice in implementing a Transport-Management Information System to make it possible for the MAV, which carries 40% of the country’s freight (eat your heart out, British Railways Board) to know at all times where its railway wagons cars are and which ones are idle; the system will consist of 15 decentralised computers and 800 personal computers in railway stations, but Andersen does not say whose kit.
