Unrealistic maybe, I am looking in as an outsider mostly. But very interested to learn what can be done. The only solution is to get people with the expertise to do ALL the work, including writing a specification if necessary, and to take ALL the risk. Financial markets are good at eliminating poor performers, just try getting reinsured after a project failure in the $M category. Risk markets (insurers) get very good at judging what is a reasonable price for something that involves risk. I once worked for a business called 'Objective Risk Management' briefly, that name came from managing risk in mining projects I think.If the cost of projects can blow out to 10X the initial quotation, as seems the case in Qld and also locally too, something is very,very wrong with the system. My theory is that the idea of issuing tenders, which is based on defining requirements up front, is just plain wrong for complex software systems, that are essentially part of the culture of an organisation. My 2c worth. On Thu, Nov 28, 2013 at 2:19 PM, Thomas Passin <list1@tompassin.net> wrote:
