Of course, you should be able to cut a $129k/yr DBA if you just spend the millions needed to streamline the IT systems.
- ivan_gammel 5y agoSimple search shows that there are 130 000 schools in the USA. Spending 10M to develop reasonable IT standards and 120M more on compliant software is just $1000 per school. And this is not a military software, it can actually be developed offshore by decent engineers earning half of that DBA salary (that is, you get 2000 _man-years_ of work for those money).
