  >For this huge task, FEMA tapped Tiffany Brown, an Atlanta entrepreneur with no experience in large-scale disaster relief and at least five canceled government contracts in her past. FEMA awarded her $156 million for the job, and Ms. Brown, who is the sole owner and employee of her company, Tribute Contracting LLC, set out to find some help. >Ms. Brown, who is adept at navigating the federal contracting system... I'm guessing that is why she got the contract despite having a poor track record and insufficient experience. She's good at playing the contracting system.
