It's not incompatible with my version if the management decision is to
hire consultants to override the wisdom of the staff and to produce
the solution that management hired them to produce (possibly on the
grounds that it's the solution that the particular consultancy always
produces).


The other common scenario is that the consultants produce the solution
that the staff recommend, but the management weren't listening to the
staff. So everyone wins! Call it a catalyst.
