No mention of whether Bernie is going to fall on his sword.
Perhaps given that he was told by many this was going to fail, it was a non-starter and it would be the turkey to end all turkey procurements, you do have to wonder if his position is tenable any more.
His mantra seems to have been to find a way to sack those in procurement who are not able to do it effectively and employ those better skilled to do so.
Ironic that he know finds himself at the helm of one of the biggest (in terms of spend) procurement cock-ups of all time. Where does that leave him in terms of having the skills for his own job?
So it could be bye bye Bernie, I don't expect he'll get much of a leaving party (well, not one he's invited to at any rate).
