Over the past year, I've seen a lot in business technology discipline (or not). I spent a day at a large enterprise where they explained how they had implemented 11 ERP systems and multiple instances of them. When I got up off the floor and promised them huge savings by reducing the variation in their back-office environment, they told me that they really weren't interested in the savings because they would require too many meetings, too many arguments, and -- well -- just too much discipline.
