Yup.
We had a reporting system that, having been developed in-house, could be customised to work exactly to our needs. Rather than invest in the single member of staff who developed it, the PCT threw money at some SHA sourced shite (that didn't do what we wanted, and never would), before the company behind that bailed out, after which we threw more money at an externally provided data warehouse (which we don't use), before moving on to a different, SHA sourced, system. Our in-house system was supposed to have been switched off, two years ago, but has instead been forced to limp on, without the support of the person who wrote it.
Hopeless.
