Thanks for the insight! I work for a publicly-funded educational institution (a non-profit as well), and can attest to having to adhere to similar restrictions that you mentioned, albeit not 100% the same.
What you describe here sounds like technical debt that was assumed by the organization due to an initial lack of knowledge/experience in an environment where sufficient restrictions exist that effectively stifle organizational agility. This lack of agility in turn results in higher operational costs.
I think that’s ironic, because at the end if the day, the root cause of inflated operational costs happen to be the regulations/restrictions put in place to avoid frivolous spending in the first place.
