FBI's Virtual Case System Focus of Continued Scrutiny
As a follow-up to my January 14, 2005 posting, FBI's Custom Database Project On Verge of Failure, additional documentation and news on the issue:
February 3, 2005 - Senate Committee on Appropriations, Subcommittee on Commerce, Justice, State and the Judiciary, Hearing on the FBI's Information Technology Modernization Program, Trilogy: Testimony of Robert S. Mueller, III, Director, Federal Bureau of Investigation
The Federal Bureau of Investigation's Management of the Trilogy Information Technology Modernization Project, Report No. 05-07, February 2005, (Full Report, 95 pages, PDF) - "...the FBI has not succeeded in its goal to replace the antiquated ACS (Automated Case Support) system with a fully functional and effective case management system, despite more than 3 years in development and $170 million."
Computer Woes Hinder FBI's Work, Report Finds (Washington Post, reg. req'd) and FBI under fire for failed Virtual Case File program
And this CBS News report, FBI Shuts Public E-Mail System documents further agency IT problems.
