SOCIAL SECURITY paid a fair price for its new computer system, according to the former vice president of the then Social Security Authority.
Andrew Sauvarin (pictured below) was the lead member for the project that oversaw the organisation’s move to a PC-server-based system, and the adviser to the board.
