From a tech worker's perspective, this seems super obvious, because that's how they generate their value in the market.
But this actually isn't "News at 11" material, because in the majority of non-engineer dense industries, companies purchase tech solutions when they become available and aware of them on the market rather than build out what they need when they need it.
Those are tremendously different modes of execution. When Goldman Sachs ramped up their spending on developers to produce proprietary solutions, for instance, it was a newsworthy development.
