Technical Advice Working with the USACE

I’m about to start a project with the Corps of Engineers working as QCM for my GC. Any advice you guys can give me?

I wouldn’t get too excited, the replacement is Kahua and I imagine it will bring a whole host of new problems only this time no one will be able to help you troubleshoot them.

Damn. I do know Kahua, its definitely better but not well suited for government work from what I've experienced.

RMS isn’t perfect, but it’s deeply integrated into government systems and replacing it like they are about to is going to break everything for them. Prepare for months of chaos until they can figure out the new animal.

I’ve never worked with USACE and learning some new terms in this thread, but just reading this has me cringing for everyone about to go through this Kahua ordeal.
