Just before you answer that, when I look at it and I see that the developer of the program is sending up caution flags, the employee union is sending up caution flags, and you proceed anyway; you even proceed with the hiring of a third party outside consultant. That tells me that you recognized that maybe you needed to get a third opinion. That should have been another caution flag. That's three caution flags that were not heeded, yet you proceeded anyway. It seems kind of reckless that the department would have done that in the presence of those cautionary flags.
Now we have to hire additional folks to correct the problem. We have a problem. We have a mess. We have to fix it. We have to keep our employees happy. We have to do some damage control. What's it going to cost us? What are all these extra employees going to cost?
This system was supposed to save us money, to save the taxpayers money, but now it's going to cost extra money. Do you have a cost estimate for what all of this is going to cost?
