Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

C Block - there's no place like it.

Thank you for UAT testing [New BigCo software system] and sharing your feedback. Though we fixed issues(based on priority and complexity), many were deferred as we ran out of time.

Ah, "we tested, fixed some stuff, and have still delivered you a substandard solution." Sounds familiar.

What's the saying? "Deliver to Quality, Budget, Time. Pick any two.... "

Are they deferring the issues or the fixes?

3M, unless it's a government IT project, in which case you'll be lucky to get 1. Or even the Deliver part.

I assume they fixed the low priority, low complexity issues, as they're the easiest, and left the rest.

At the risk of getting totally sidetracked ;-) I'd disagree. I've worked on some multi-million pound projects in huge organisations that have delivered to all 3. The difference being they scope the project properly, set achievable targets, and then proactively manage it. It'll never catch on ;-)

No room in the public sector for you, Flanks
