ANDERSEN CONSULTING: Deregulation of the chicken's side of the
 road was threatening its dominant market position. The chicken
 was faced with significant challenges to create and develop the
 competencies required for the newly competitive market. Andersen
 Consulting, in a partnering relationship with the client, helped
 the chicken by rethinking its physical distribution strategy and
 implementation processes. Using the Poultry Integration Model
 (PIM), Andersen helped the chicken use its skills, methodologies,
 knowledge, capital and experiences to align the chicken's people,
 processes and technology in support of its overall strategy within
 a Program Management framework. Andersen Consulting convened a
 diverse cross-spectrum of road analysts and best chickens along
 with Anderson consultants with deep skills in the transportation
 industry to engage in a two-day itinerary of meetings in order to
 leverage their personal knowledge capital, both tacit and
 explicit, and to enable them to synergize with each other in order to
 achieve the implicit goals of delivering and successfully architecting and
 implementing an enterprise-wide value framework across the
 continuum of poultry cross-median processes. The meeting was held
 in a park-like setting, enabling and creating an impactful
 environment which was strategically based, industry-focused, and
 built upon a consistent, clear, and unified market message and
 aligned with the chicken's mission, vision, and core values. This
 was conducive towards the creation of a total business integration
 solution. Andersen Consulting helped the chicken change to become
 more successful.

 cares why? The end of crossing the road justifies whatever motive
