It is a good classic screw up, with blame for everyone!
- ACCESS programmer builds desktop app on his own that looks good for his immediate needs.
- Management sees the app and wants to deploy it all over the company. Hey, why design anything new when we have it already?
- ACCESS programmer claims it will deploy and and management believes him.
- It does not scale, it does not interface with mainframe apps, external apps, etc. It has no documentation, etc.
- ACCESS programmer now has a career being the only guy who can keep the sinking boat up. Never mind how many times a week it has to be rebooted or how much data is lost.
- Neither the programmer nor management will scream for help and ask for a budget. Management would look stupid; programmer would lose his job and power
