Thanks to Lanhee Chen (ChenForCalifornia.com) for pointing out the State Controller’s Financial Information System for California (FI$Cal) accounting system that has been in the works for 18 years, at the cost of $1 billion, and it is still not completed.
18 years and more delays.
As @Lanheechen pointed out: “It took 7 years to land on the moon after JFK’s moon speech and 4 yrs to build the Golden Gate Bridge. It shouldn’t be this hard.”
We agree! How many other delayed computer projects are there in the state?
From the Sacramento Bee: "California’s $1 billion accounting program delayed again, could affect state’s credit" https://www.sacbee.com/news/politics-government/the-state-worker/article257054247.html
