The dumped Police INCIS project was doomed to
failure by numerous, inter-related and complex
problems, according to a ministerial inquiry.

. . .

It says the reasons for its failure were “numerous,
interrelated and complex”, but they were not unique
to the Police and there were other examples in both
government and private enterprise here and overseas.

. . .

Another major IT project for Land Information New
Zealand to put land title and survey data into a
computer database, known as Landonline, has also
suffered from time and budget overruns.
