Vendor also lazy/incompetent to fulfill your project requirement, some are not stated in project tender.

If can make fried rice with hotdog, why would anyone in the right mind give you lobster with your fried rice? SI usually just give bare minimal for project requirement, anymore you have to poke them for information and top-up their work. That's why if govtech dont keep poke or not experienced, will kenna smoke by vendor easily.

Thanks for the tip

Hi guys may I kindly seek for some advise on what are some of the must-have certification and/or courses to attain in order to start heading into this sector? E.g. is CISSP a good start?

I'm in my 30s with non-tech related local U degree, mainly operation manager role in security services and would like to start venturing into a new sector.

Thanks and appreciate your response
