I have never worked for the federal government (or any level of government) so I could be commenting without the appropriate context here but I have worked at a massive (200K+ person) company before and it sounds just about the same as what you describe above.

Fuck em, build it and if no one comes at least you KNOW that this company has too much bureaucracy to change and you should dump them. Programmers are modern day gods and we should start acting like it.
