Re: I have to defend the police here...
I think you've misunderstood the purpose of an organisation's IT department, surely in the 21st century after having outsourced and abstracted ourselves away from all management of technology, we are now actully nothing more than informed buyers of "services" on behalf of our various business unit's, we don;t need to know how to install apps on servers, we need to understand how to facilitate the commisioning of services wihtin the risk appetite of our organisation, at an appropriate cost level to meet the value provided by the service. (I'll leave you to decide how much of that statement is tongue in cheek and how much is born of bitter experience).
