IT Consultant

One of the large consultancies was asked to review some NHS plans and recommend a cost effective route to solving their problems.

The following instructions were allegedly given by the NHS group at the start of consultation.

"No paper or electronic record of these meetings or your findings must be made." Puzzled the consultants asked why had they contracted such a huge sum for their work and not have written proposals.

The reply:

"If you make a recommendation that we decide not to act upon and the project goes belly up as a consequence, with the absence of proof we will not lose our jobs."

£5bn mmm..........

This was not my company!!!
