As far as I'm concerned, the damage is done not only by the contractor but by the "good folks" who put the contract requirements out there without analyzing the status quo.Aaron BrazellSun, 01 May 2005 20:50:35 -0000http://technosailor.com/2005/04/30/mcp-achieved/#comment-1029304Aaron congrats on the cert... Not that you needed it, but seeing what happened with the NMIMC contract it's good to have. This last screw up by the NMIMC leader-less-ship is going to hit them bad. I don't even think they realize how big a mistake they've made this time. Loss of years of institutional knowledge plus a low ball contractor is going to wreak havoc… I wouldn’t be surprised to see the new contractor out of there in less than a year… They just won’t be able to afford quality people with what they bid, plus needing to get everyone cleared… I feel sorry for the good folks who will have to live with the damage people like Foster, Wulf and Becker caused…MikeSun, 01 May 2005 08:50:07 -0000http://technosailor.com/2005/04/30/mcp-achieved/#comment-1029303That's what happens when details aren't paid attention to in the writing of a contract that is binding. Unlike hats and boxers one size does not fit all in contracts and spitting out mumbo jumbo about needing certs without taking the time to understand the staff as it exists has caused more than one company to make the mistake that was made this past week. I think that perhaps they realized the problem but it was too late to change things.Aaron BrazellSat, 30 Apr 2005 19:55:31 -0000http://technosailor.com/2005/04/30/mcp-achieved/#comment-1029302CONGRATS! I'm glad you keep updating and supersizing your resume. Though I hate it when company worships a piece of paper over 8 years worth of hands-on experience in the field! (I heard that's what happen last week in MID. Sucky sucky!GolfySat, 30 Apr 2005 18:48:24 -0000http://technosailor.com/2005/04/30/mcp-achieved/#comment-1029301Erm..."Now"...
