Here we go again... Back in the beginning of March I write about the role of the new FED CIO and some of the things that might be considered while holding this position. By the end of that week the position was filled, and Vivek Kundra held the position. That is, until it was released that his former office was being investigated for fraud and theft.
According to an article in InfomationWeek, "White House CIO On Leave Amid Scandal At D.C. Technology Office", the CSO of D.C. Technology office was signing off on bills to the city for quipment that was not delivered, and for consultants that never worked.
Although the federal officials do not feel that Kundra was involved, he is definetly in a different light then when he was hired. I am sure that there are enough distractions without having to be involved with a federal investigation.
So I guess we will wait and see how this all pans out. Will we have a new CIO or will we have go to plan "b"?
