Isn it the case that the job of developing the website and booking system had to be outsourced to a major IT company such as Atos Origin or SchlumbergerSema to obtain the necessary technology?
A. Not so. Both the original US partner SchlumbergerSema and the French owned partner Atos Origin were involved in technologies quite inappropriate to website and booking system development, which is why the work was originally contracted out to lesser known UK specialist firms. The most recent change involves the new partner, Austrian based Tiscover who have operated tourism websites in Europe and Britain for some years. Their technology is already dated compared to more innovative IT companies. The British Tiscover.co.uk website has providers only in a few locations. IT experts have advised that there are a number of high quality Scottish based IT companies capable of producing world-beating websites that have been ignored by eTourism.
