TROUBLE WITH TEDDY'S SOFTWARE?
Ted Mondale sounds rather defensive.
"A group of Minnesota counties is asking for its money back from a former politician whose software company promised to put government records on the Internet.
The company, Nazca Solutions Inc., is headed by Ted Mondale, former state senator, ex-chairman of the Metropolitan Council and son of former Vice President Walter Mondale.
'Since when is it news that a software company is late with an application development?' Mondale said Monday. 'Don't tell me -- I know.'
One of Nazca's clients, a group of eight Minnesota counties including Wright and Carver, has moved to end its contract and is asking for a refund of more than $240,000 from privately owned Nazca.
'When we signed the contract, what was being sold to the counties was pretty much a complete product,' said Lisa Meredith, executive director of the group, the Minnesota Counties Computer Cooperative. 'I don't think the development was nearly as far along as what was presented to the counties.'" [Excerpt] Source: Star Tribune, April 11, 2006
