Wow. It's a new case study on how process risk equals 1970's-style failures: Big Design Upfront and failure to manage risk. Gambling with people's lives instead of ironing the bugs out in a mock environment, going live on a limited basis (smaller center/group first) and not letting the consultants drive the product. The operators should've had final say on production worthiness. The arrogance of top-down "solutions" that don't work. Other observation: results are often inversely proportional to budget, up to a point. Spending instead of thinking is not a solution.
