New Government Computer System Takes 15
Steps To Save A Document


New Government Computer System Takes 15
Steps To Save A Document
07/22/2004 04:26 AM
Ah, the federal government at work. When you install a new computer system, you generally do so to make your office more efficient. Not with the government. It turns out that a new SAP powered computer system at two offices of (of all things) the Federal Technology Service (the GSA's info tech procurement group), has slowed things down to a crawl. They're blaming the training procedure, but it says people were trained... but apparently they were trained without actually seeing the system they were being trained on (no, seriously). The article claims that the GSA was shocked to discover that practice and theory didn't match, and that employees actually needed trainers on hand to help them when they actually had the new system in place. Of course, one reason why they might need training is that the system sounds ridiculously complex. It now takes 15 (count 'em) steps to save a file. Meanwhile, bills go unpaid, orders go unprocessed, and the group insists they're going to muddle through because turning back is not an option and "workarounds" will upset the auditors. Apparently, the $46 million of our tax money spent on the system did not go to any usability testing. Among the other descriptive phrases used in the article: "someone bursts into tears almost hourly," "it is very, very difficult to learn the new system," "unnecessarily complicated," and "not always intuitive." Sounds great.

Preparation


Preparation 08/08/2004 05:28 PM
Are You Ready? September will be National Preparedness Month, with an announcement on Sept. 9th. Throughout September 2004, the US Department of Homeland Security, American Red Cross, American Prepared Campaign, the National Association of Broadcasters, the US Department of Education and other partners, will host a series of events to highlight the importance of citizen emergency preparedness. Nothing like keeping us scared, huh? And it's only 3 years since 9/11--you think they could have done this sooner maybe? There's a skimpy calendar (PDF), with Parade Magazine, Starbucks and NASCAR mentioned. And for the kids, a Ready Deputy contest.

Preparation for Hibernation. 03/11/2003 09:43 AM

To prepare for the move to Hibernate, I've been refactoring the current implementation of the Roller business tier. There is a lot of code in the Castor implementation of the persistence manager interfaces that is generic enough to be used in the Hibernate impementation. So, I'm moving that code up into abstract base classes that may be used by both implementations.
