Very interesting KatT.
I have the impression that there are more governments making bad decisions in software choices…. We also have a government like that.
And whoh !!! “ Instead of saving $70 million a year as planned, the report said that the cost to taxpayers to fix Phoenix's problems could reach a total of $2.2 billion by 2023.”
That is amazingly bad.
Off the shelf is ok for small systems…. But for big systems….
But of course dedicated developed software can also go berserk.
Our government once did a good choice for a specific project, they had started themselves with a devastating combination of Excel spreadsheets, terribly complex, needing two teams of 5 people. Then they decided to buy the adaptable system of the company where I work. Result, everything became simpler, faster, in control and only needed one team of 5 people.
