The only other thing that underlies in mystifying things like this is the old "you don't get fired for IBM/Accenture/etc" thing. Large vendors exist as career insurance policies for upper middle management. Executives can't question them, regulators can't question them, etc.
The kickback aspect I've always wondered about. It was also rife in things like medical device / drug sales, and probably still is. US Government jobs are so underpaid in DC that of course it must happen there as well.
- 2Gkashmiri 3y agosee. in the case of fujitsu for example. if i were fujitsu and in bed with the government, i would say, the work abc would cost $10 but how about you say the estimated project cost would be around $100 and only we would bid at $90. i (fujitsu) would give you $30 for your troubles in either cash or in kind, by giving you or your family members or their busiensses some favour in similar kind (like purchasing unnecessary stuff from them at inflated prices) and this kind of thing is very difficult to investigate.
