I bet you know what BSI 0 is as well :-)
I once worked on a bid where the customer said we had to be 100%
compliant to all the requirements.
It was valued at about £10Million.
So, I was working on the compliance statement, checking that our
product and solution would be fully compliant and identifying what
development work needed to be done, when I came across RFC 1149 on
page 53 of the requirements. That RFC 1149 is surprising difficult to
implement in software so we responded NC to it.
Apparently, we were the only supplier that responded with a 99%
compliance SOC.
We won the bid. :-)
That is a standard trick, when we created RFQs in a previous company we
always put in a few April 1st RFCs. At least it would tell you who
actually read the RFQ. And these were not small £10Million contracts
either :)
