Description

After repeated delays, more than $30 million spent and little to show for it, a decadelong effort to upgrade the state’s antiquated workers’ compensation system has been put on hold.

On Friday, WaTech, the state’s information technology oversight office, suspended “all project activities and expenditures” for the $292 million upgrade due to a “continued lack of progress and ability to execute” by the state Department of Labor & Industries, according to a WaTech memo on the state IT dashboard.
