My own experience with consultants is that this model rarely works. Consultants are usually not knowledgeable enough about what you are doing to do a good job. They’re also incentivized to drag things out and create dependencies and if this harms the project or the business they just skate on to the next one. I really do wonder if a shift to outsourcing and consultants is the entire reason America can’t build.
