You're welcome...I am a PSE also<g> although a fairly recent addition. =
All of our major projects are outsourced and some of them are better =
than others. We haven't had any noteworthy IT project failures in =
Pennsylvania that I know of but if we did it would be hard to place all =
the blame on the contractor. We set the requirements and administer the =
contract. If it doesn't turn out well I'd be hard put to put all the =
blame on the consultants. =20

Why thank you kind sir!=20
There have been some curious suggestions in the UK trade press
recently about terrible public sector IT and how it should all be
outsourced. Were the classic public sector IT failures not largely
implemented by large private sector consulting companies I'd have more
sympathy with this view.
