I know of a large international retailer everyone here has heard of that had at least 3 aborted attempts to rewrite their 70's VAX-based warehouse management software stack (an internal attempt, an Indian outsource attempt and an SAP attempt) they spent that much at least with zero to show for it. They had all the issues with "too many sales in one day causing batches to not finish" and "but this warehouse wants to open 24/7..." and still couldn't get it rewritten
That simple? You probably couldn't even list all the things the DVLA is responsible for. I also doubt you could list all the laws and policies relating to driver licenses.
And you would be shocked at how expensive big rewrites actually are.

couldn't get it rewritten as in the logic was impossible or more like with a specific budget, random set of KPIs etc?
idk for some reason I feel like projects like this should be allowed more flexibility by shareholders
What? Like Fujitsu? Still going strong bidding on gov contracts and providing garbage.
