In may 2011 a part of the insanely complex NHS National Programme for IT (NPfIT) was violently slammed by auditors. In a debate following the report a Member of Parliament claimed:
a teenager in their bedroom can automate an e-mail from one system to another, or to a mobile phone; all that is trivial these days
In a post yesterday I said:
Leaders centralizing IT-projects have taken on a mandate that the public has not given them. They do that because they lack knowledge.
Thank you, Ian Swelles, MP. What a great illustration of my point!
