I did everything necessary to exit an unwanted contract on time. Produced the options appraisal, made a sound case for termination, won executive approval, all agreed well in advance.
The problem? The head of service tasked with notifying the supplier forgot to action it, after confirming in writing they would.
Yet more evidence that if you want a job doing properly, just do it yourself. Now we’re lumbered with an unwanted contract we will not use, in a time of constrained budgets, with no flex in the system.
