At a lot of orgs, I think executive leadership are basically buying the service of assigning blame to the consulting firm if things go wrong. If that happens, they can tell the board they took the advice of one of the big consulting firms everyone has heard of. The consulting firm got paid and will still get business, so I doubt they care. Though they are certainly also farming out critical thinking at the same time.

If that’s the case though, why wouldn’t the consulting company just throw the workers a bone since it’s no skin off their back either way.
My executive director said this in no uncertain terms. I had pointed out that some enterprise support was stupidly expensive, and that in my entire time with the institution, we hadn’t ever utilized it once. And in fact, if it ever came down to involving lawyers for breach of contract, the CEO said “no, why would we ever bite the hand we have to work with? we’d part ways first”.
And that’s when the director told me on the side: It’s a single throat to choke, something that can be pointed at and assigned blame, how to CYA at this level of the game.
Edit: And to clarify, a new SoW was being negotiated, and I was pulled in as a SME to advise on the technical aspects of potential support that we could possibly need.
