How? With another 14 million dollars... that is how. You can do a lot of things with 14 million dollars, this is not especially true when you are talking about the govt spending this kind of money, but still - it is not pocket change to the average company.

Dickerson rules: "Rule 1: "The war room and the meetings are for solving problems. There are plenty of other venues where people devote their creative energies to shifting blame."

I sit in meetings weekly with mangers discussing issues that I know about the most but I can never get them to hear me out.
One question I have - were the high-tech wizards paid standard gsa rates? https://www.gsaadvantage.gov/ref_text/GS35F5457H/0LUS2P.2NVK... Page 25. Top developer rate for 2014 is $99/hr which requires 10 years of experience.

HealthCare.gov had been constructed so that every time a user had to get information from the website's vast database, the website had to make what's called a query into that database. Well-constructed, high-volume sites, especially e-commerce sites, will instead store or assemble the most frequently accessed information in a layer above the entire database, called a cache.
It also struck me as a little funny that Time had to define the term 'cache'. Even my mom (74 years old) has some idea what a cache is (browser cache).
Wizards? It's an e-commerce web site. This is baby stuff, even at scale.
If this happens the entire contracting landscape of DC would change dramatically.
