That is reassuring. But based on my experience, not all agencies/divisions are so conscientious. Many seem to select a solution based on cost and cost alone. And that is rarely the ideal way to go.

Being a Fed myself and the manager of Cyber security, I rarely look at the least cost solution. We expend a lot of effort evaluating solutions that are not only cost effective, but effective. It never pays to base your solutions on cost. I have seen far too many high cost solutions that have failed because the proper requirements phase and product eval's were not done. We do care about this stuff.
