The end result isn't the end at all, but just the beginning of a more comprehensive system. This was just a proof-of-concept to show that something like this was possible.
- DannyBee 11y agoSo, that part has been known for years, and in fact, IMHO, part of the problem (with no offense meant) has been that many orgs provide proof of concepts to agencies or as part of sprints, etc, but in the end, the agencies really want someone who helps them maintain it forever. They want someone there to hold their hand and help make it work, forever. Not someone who shows them what the future looks like, does a little work, and then says "welp, gotta run, have fun building it!". Because then the agencies go back to their multi-million dollar consulting contracts, and end up with what they got in the first place: Someone selling them 20+ year old technology at a high price. (Sorry, i spent way too long in DC watching this kind of thing happen repeatedly)
