SESC Explanation: Software Engineering Services Company That would be one way to say it -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 2002-04-03 16:05:31 (GMT) -------------------------------------------------- OK if your company is looking for marketing lingo: Engineering and IT services company is OK OR IT and Engineering Services Company. I would make services go with both not just IT/ Personally, I think IT services is vague so really I would prefer: IT and software engineering company and to hell with the services which brings it down a notch. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 2002-04-03 16:06:25 (GMT) -------------------------------------------------- IT and software engineering company sounds GRANDER than any of the choices with services... |

software engineering company Explanation: No neat abbreviation, I'm afraid. This is as suggested by the Oxford-Hachette! HTH Mary -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 2002-04-03 15:13:11 (GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Hi Poornima, You can\'t call it an IT services and engineering company, because that sounds like \'IT services\' and \'engineering\' are two separate things. How about: \'software engineering and services company\' or IT services and software engineering company. Neither of which exactly trips off the tongue ... Hey ho! |

SSCI - computer services company Explanation: or computer services organization, according to TERMIUM -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 2002-04-03 15:06:37 (GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Domaine(s) : informatique 1 / 1 software house Terme(s) apparenté(s) systems house software company software firm computer bureau service and software organization software and computing services company société de services et d\'ingénierie en informatique n. f. Terme(s) apparenté(s) SSCI n. f. société de services et de conseils en informatique n. f. société de services et d\'ingénierie informatique n. f. Abrév. SSII n. f. Déf. : Prestataire de services qui développe des systèmes d\'information (matériel et logiciel) sur mesure qu\'il livre clé en main et dont il assure la maintenance. Note(s) : L\'appellation « société de services et d\'ingénierie en informatique » tend à remplacer celle de « société de services et de conseils en informatique » (« SSCI »). Outre la variante « société de services et d\'ingénierie informatique », on rencontre également « société de services et ingénierie informatique », « société de services en ingénierie et informatique », « société de service et d\'ingénierie informatique ». L\'éventail des services offerts par les SSII est de plus en plus large et englobe souvent la formation ainsi que la location des services de personnel qualifié. L\'équivalence et la synonymie des termes anglais est approximative, dans la mesure où le découpage des réalités est parfois différent d\'un pays à l\'autre.
