    Where did the feds turn? To a previously authorized cyber engineering firm, CGI, who held a very special status - “Indefinite Delivery and Indefinite Quantity.” As the Washington Examiner outlined:

    Federal officials considered only one firm to design the Obamacare health insurance exchange website that has performed abysmally since its Oct. 1 debut.

    Rather than open the contracting process to a competitive public solicitation with multiple bidders, officials in the Department of Health and Human Services’ Centers for Medicare and Medicaid accepted a sole bidder, CGI Federal, the U.S. subsidiary of a Canadian company with an uneven record of IT pricing and contract performance.

    There were two informative threads on CGI Federal posted yesterday.... Your information comes from conservative treehouse.

    And this from a well known progressive news media. The facts remain the same. CGI is a Canadian based IT company that was previously contracted by the Canadian government to set up websites. They were fired because they did not get the job done. Why were they contracted by the HHS Department to handle such a huge task just months before the opening day when the HHS Department ACA was signed into law back in 2009?
