Bull points
- Bottom line is that operating from a single platform gives us a less expensive, faster, less error-prone, and far more secure environment for ourselves and our customers.
- It's very clear that the market interest and issues around traceability is growing and certainly reinforces our belief that as the year progresses, the number of inquiries and new starts will increase, and we're preparing for that.

Bear points
