This piece is largely positive about Accenture, and I have no beef with them, having never worked with them. However it is true to say that the public sector IT procurement landscape here in the UK is bedevilled by big beast companies who have only the vaguest grasp of technology, but who have successfully diversified into this lucrative sector largely on the basis of their very size being seen as making them a 'safe bet'. Of course the actual work is farmed out to undercompensated and underskilled offshore grunts.
