"He" appears to be fast because he realized that throwing as many bodies at the problem as he can find actually pays off due to the contract structure. Not necessarily because he's making either efficient or healthy use of those bodies. How much guaranteed extra money does EA make for shipping Madden a day earlier?
- colotj 8y agoAbsolutely. This article speaks to the immense advantage of a 3 or 4 decade player in local markets / governments. Contracts with $200,000/day early completion bonuses are not handed out to everyone. While they may be "hard bid" by dozens of contractors, preferential treatment is accorded to those with relationships. If you're that guy AND you landed the contract, your decision to raid manpower from other local players is as straightforward as they come.
- mindB 8y agoI think you're probably right. The impressive thing here and the competitive advantage is probably the organizational ability and supervisional manpower to make effective use of extra manpower.
