RE: 170 Million Dollars down the tubes
Advertisements [?]
for software to connect the FBI internationally (I'm assuming internationally, as that's a hefty price tag) to thwart terrorism, does anyone know who the contractor was that lost this money due to their ineptitude? I've heard a few times tonight that the $$ is lost, the new software system is broke, and cannot be fixed. They have to start over, and that $170Million is history.
Were there no clauses to get the money back should this software enhancement not work? Who was the contractor?
