It’s not a “Supercomputer” it’s a software system, that apparently has already been heavily customized to meet the district’s business practices. So, it would have been cost effective to upgrade and integrate current systems, if that’s even possible, THREE years ago, but not any more.
I guess the School Board only meets once per every three years, because otherwise I would find it very interesting that Clark County School Board Vice President Terri Janison is just now, after 36 months, seeing a monthly ERP bill.
I think the main point is being missed, and that is “no new staff positions were added to shift the work away from the consultants”. Who’s decision was that?? When building a heavily customized system that I would think would need to be heavily tested, you can’t have part-time CCSD employees working on it with or without the consultants, else you will wind up like LA Unified…which by the way, has nothing to do with CCSD.
