Because we are responsive to the business, they never revert to spreadsheet solutions. Not that I do not believe you but... How hard have you looked? In my experience the largest the corporation the more chances there are that IT just does not realize what the situation is. "Shadow governance by spreadsheet" is something you notice only if you actually work in the same office withe business users for a few days, in my experience (or when the whole thing has grown so much that they cannot really manage it anymore then ask you to fold it back into the main system). Of course, YMMV.
