Kinda like running a car with engine parts from different brands and manufacturers, you can probably make it work but it ends up being inefficient and more expensive in the long run.

I can assure you, running with Siemens on everything is costing the city and consequently us tax payers a lot more money in the long run. There are multiple ways to integrate with different protocols.
The discussion about RFP’s and open tender are a complete farce when it comes to the City of Calgary.
The thing is, the guys at city hall making those decisions are all ex Siemens guys. Go figure.
