Re: Have any Government IT Projects in Britain worked?

"As a US reader, I am left wondering if any Government IT project in the UK has ever worked."

There are projects that have worked. However they're not as newsworthy as those that fail so you don't hear about them. That's a pity on several levels. One advantage of publicising them would be to let it be known in the public sector that failure shouldn't be regarded as an expected outcome. Another would be to have exemplars of how to do things right.
