It's over mate.
There are no detectable signs of change.
The work plan is bullshit. Just read the Avmed bit for the flavor and smell.
I will wager that the bill for "Digital workplace transformation" is North of $60 million and I haven't yet heard the magic words "Business process re - engineering" yet. That will be good for at least another 30 mil. That is followed by "human resources evaluation, training and redeployment" for another 20 mil. A mob like Accenture, IBM, etc will financially skin CASA alive, embed themselves within the organisation and prevent any meaningful reform of the regulations.
Their plan:
(a) Detect and eliminate competent people within CASA - they will identify themselves by querying obvious automation stupidities and suggesting useful changes. The consultants either hire them themselves or get them fired. That way any opposition to consulting money making is removed.
(b) Gain complete control of CASA's IT strategy and agenda because, these days, your IT strategy constrains your business strategy. Boardroom smoke and mirrors presentations are great for this. If CASA doesnt yet have a CIO, it will have one soon. This is to keep the consulting assignments flowing. The desired end result is a client (CASA) totally dependent on the consultant.
© Having lobotomised CASA, no reforms will be possible without spending $$$$$$ on computer consultants because the software won't support change without redesign. Even the simplest things will cost big money, for example a plastic credit card style licence. You can forget about the adopting the FAR's, they will tell you with a straight face that the software won't support it.
