German politicians are always throwing out buzzwords like "digitalisation" but don't actually understand what that means compared to other countries like italy or even greece. The majority of governmental services including most of the school system still run on fax and windows xp. Emails are printed and then faxed to other divisions. It is the rule that offers to the government have to be compared and the cheapest one has to win the pitch, not the best. this always ends in unrealistic offers, cost overruns or worse technical infrastructure. Also lots of nepotism.
