If you think about, $600M is enough money that someone somewhere could create an entire new company and staff it with some of the best developers just to get this contract...

And if this was the up-front cost, I'm sure there would be more DD about alternatives.

But I'm sure the lock-in occurred long before the bill hit 9 figures.

Or CUNY could hire developers at silicon valley salary and build this in-house.

As other posts have pointed out, it is unclear the 600M figure is accurate.
