Just another “successful” government run program.

As a former DOD Employer I can assure you that EVERY freaking software solution was immediately identified by us (the user) as having flaws. When asked to comment on the issues we would issue pages of comments and suggestions. Upper management chose to believe the vendor who would basically blow off the issues with statements like “This will be addressed in a week or so after the software implementation date.” Then it was ignored or not fixed right.
Result was employees having to run both the old and the new software (which of course did not communicate with each other) and created more workload.
Saw it dozens of times.
