Arts Council paid 50,000 to rehire firm that worked on scrapped 7m IT project
Briefly

The Arts Council recently spent an additional €50,000 on an 'off-the-shelf' IT system from the supplier Ergo after abandoning a failed €6.675 million IT project. This earlier project resulted in over €5 million being written off due to the system's non-functionality. The decision to transition to a new system reflects ongoing challenges within the agency's IT infrastructure and its commitment to pursue alternative solutions despite prior setbacks.
