I wouldn't want to have to be playing bidding games against one of the big consulting firms that sometimes bill massively to create disasters.
I'd rather just have more information systems be recognized as necessarily a government core competency, to in-house. And to pay well enough, to hire the best teams for that (without leaning on their altruism/patriotism so hard that they have to worry about money).
- sitkack 2y agoI agree, but they often don't have the skills. I do think many states could benefit from something like digital service, where a state level dev shop could supply services to towns and counties.
