In this podcast episode, Sam Corcos, Chief Information Officer of the U.S. Treasury Department, discusses the substantial challenges of modernizing government IT systems, particularly at the IRS. He highlights entrenched bureaucratic inertia, outdated technologies like fax machines, and dysfunctional procurement and contractor relationships that impede progress. Corcos underscores the importance of technically skilled leadership and cultural change over mere technological upgrades, emphasizing the complexity of aligning IT with tax policy and legal requirements.
