I mean, the consultants are filling the need. They didn’t create it .

if lobbying to the point where congress cut agencies' leg and arm to be dysfunctional then pretty much forcing to use contractor isn't creating the problem, idk what is.

IT service is pretty much obliterated from government agencies, and are forced to use contract bidding. And I dont think anyone need an insight on how god-awful IT in govt is. And guess how much the bid was for these "consultants" :) most likely multitude of just having a solid in-house IT team.

That’s true, and I don’t blame the consultants for going where they money is.
