Currently, there is a worldwide wine glut which is the result of several factors, among them bumper crops of 1982 and 1983 coupled with a steady decline in consumption in the major European wine producing countries (Table II) (16). Due to the current strength of the US dollar, American wine is placed in a noncompetitive position in the world market. For example, a Bank of America study (14) showed that in 1979, when the dollar was weak, US wine exports grew almost 120% while imports declined 2%. In 1982, when the dollar was strong, imports grew 6% while exports dropped 11%.

The other side of utihty concerns costs. How costly is job evaluation Two types of costs associated with job evaluation can be identified (1) design and administration costs and (2) labor costs that result from pay structure changes recommended by the job evaluation process. The labor cost effects wfll be unique for each application. Winstanley offers a rule of thumb of 1 to 3% of covered payroll (Winstanley). Experience suggests that costs can range from a few thousand dollars for a small organization to over 300,000 in consultant fees alone for major projects in firms like Digital Equipment, 3M, TRW, or Bank of America.

Yet another issue is the implementation of systems to the benefit of the users. When a company looks for an IT solntion to a problem without re-engineering the process, refining the existing database or training the end users, the application is doomed to fail. Real disasters can be very expensive. For example, the 60 million Master Trust accounting system for Bank of America had to be scrapped because it could not keep accurate accounts. 

The plastic BankAmericard was launched more or less at the same time as American Express s first plastic card. While the two cards were formally very similar. Bank of America realized that plastic offered an additional afford-ance that would go on to be exploited again and again in the following decade. With the combination of The Databosser - a high-speed embossing machine able to read customer information fed in via IBM punch-cards - and a new type of plastic that fitted into these embossing machines previously used to produce metal cards. Bank of America had access to the most... 

There is not scope here to go into the details of the problems that Bank of America subsequently ran into with their particular strategy this has been extensively detailed elsewhere (Guseva 2005 Nocera 1994 328-33 Wolters 2000 333). However, as both Guseva (2005) and Wolters (2000) argue, in the long run the strategy...
