The school board evidently feels confident about getting funding from the
legislature without having to disclose any meaningful details about what
the project entails. They say things like their systems are vulnerable to
attack, and they need funding to keep the data safe. The data is used to
allocate funding to local school districts and charter schools, make policy
decisions, and to report to the federal government. That type of sales
pitch.

I think I have a reasonable feel for the number tables and views because
the school board is collecting that data from our systems. The massive size
of their funding request puzzles me.

Probably takes more than you think.

75-100 tables and 200-300 views with who knows what type of database and
code base behind it today.

Requirements gathering, business logic building, tech specs, coding, qa
testing, go live, support, new database, network and server infrastructure,
etc...

That would take a LOT more than $300k in my opinion. Possibly even more
than $22.9 million.
