 PROFILE
Pliant is embracing flexibility in order to survive. Pliant Systems -- which was created from withered telecom products maker BroadBand Technologies -- has developed the Pliant 3000, a hardware and software system that simultaneously provides voice and data transmission between a telecom's central office and neighborhood phone lines. The system is targeted to competitive local exchange carriers and independent operating companies in the US. Still standing despite more than a decade of losses, Pliant cut its workforce in half and filed for bankruptcy after being unable to make a $115 million debt payment in mid-2001.
