Not much business acumen around I suppose? The whole defence of the Vic Government here just tires me out. There is a thing called due diligence, it was rushed yes, but the whole lot was a fiasco.

When i look at the two biggest failings in what happened in Vic I am happy to entertain the "unprecedented card". Neither the Feds or the State had pre-existing manpower to handle what was happening cleanly.

The Feds failed in the Aged care - BUT THEY DID NOT REFUSE HELP THAT WAS OFFERED. Now if it comes to pass again after the time they have had the properly prepare that they fail again(and they may), then that is another thing, as the "unprecedented" card has been played .

Vic State did not have the resources, they were offered help, refused it and ran with diverting staff from "major events" or whatever with no experience, and bingo, you award contracts to entities unable to fulfil them. Yes they should not have accepted those contracts, but ultimately it is the "business" that contracts out that is responsible.

I feel sorry for "Denise or Denis from Major Events". Thrown in the deep end, no oversight from above. I would lose my job for sure if I was that messy and delegated to people out of their depth.


Golden rule : If things are out of control, accept any help.
Bravo good post tweeked.
I find T3rminator quite trying over time, like he's on Dans payroll looking to cover tracks.....and compare to NSW but they did the same yaddayaddayadda....mate its not State vs State but if you like to see it as a game, there's errors always from both sides.
Please, forget all this they said he said - everyone is in the wrong somewhere - incl blind freddy.
You finally have some freedom, get away from every single website close down your laptop.
