Thank you, Mr. Chairman. I just want to pick up where my colleague Mr. Bromley was asking questions on the contract management module. I would equate it to, you know, last year we bought a souped up Porsche, we got it home and we found out it’s got no air conditioning. That’s the kind of thing that really bothers me, when the government spends millions of dollars on new, state-of-the-art software system and SAM and it can’t manage contracts that the government has. It’s kind of ridiculous that a year later we want to spend another million dollars on that component, that piece of it.
I’m not sure, and Mr Bromley touched on it a little bit, but in the life of the last government we had many discussions, I remember, with the previous government on migrating the contract registry and the BIP monitoring all over to Finance. If we’re going to spend a million dollars on a new contract
management module, wouldn’t it make sense that we’d be having those discussions again? I’d like to know exactly where that discussion is at or if that’s not part of the equation, then we’re not really managing all the contracts government-wide if ITI still has the contract registry. These guys are spending a million dollars on a new contract management module for this SAM system. Again, we’re not covering all of our bases here, Mr. Chairman, so maybe a comment on that would be great. Thank you.
