    Might be local government. Me and sales have this argument pretty often

    Me: it is in the spec

    Sales: no one noticed it except you

    Me: thanks?

    Sales: no one is going to care

    Me: then take it out of the spec and resign everything.

    Sales: why are you making a big deal about this?

    Me: because it is in the spec that we signed and if we don’t honor the spec they can backcharge us.

    Sales: that won’t happen

    Me: you are right because we are going to follow the spec. If you don’t want me to please email me, the department head, and the client specifically ordering me not to follow the contract that we signed.

      Yeah I’m in Europe and our customers were municipalities buying healthcare related solutions. It happened after our little startup got taken over by a big player and they started getting involved in the contract bids.
