Imagine building a house...
- without any architectural plans
- with only general sketches as to how it's supposed to look, or only detailed diagrams for wiring, plumbing, etc.
- with each subcontractor doing whatever they thought best, without consulting with the owner or other contractors
- with no specialized functions for the rooms (e.g., every room has its own little stove, bed, bathtub.)
- where a room had to be completely torn down just to remodel it
....the same is true for building information systems in public
