Westerbeke must depend on such software for the design of Westerbeke's own product software. Such software may be outdated and no longer accurate. Routine changes made by Westerbeke's suppliers, of which Wester- beke rarely has notice in advance, are frequently not reflected in the supplier's software until after such changes take place.
