The Perot Plan FOCUS: Instead of looking for business in many different industries, Perot will concentrate on five: financial services, health care, energy, communications and media, and insurance. TALENT: New hires include James Champy, former head of CSC Index; Ron Rittenmeyer, former president of computer wholesaler Merisel and ex-COO of Burlington Northern; and Gil Marmol and Frank Ostroff, former McKinsey consultants. TECHNOLOGY: Perot has acquired or taken stakes in eight companies, including Rothwell International, an object-oriented application development firm; CommSys, a provider of telecommunications billing software and services; Cambridge Object Technologies, Internet specialists; and Doblin Group, a consulting firm.
