With a $464,000,000 budget and a timeline of three years, CMS and company attempt to build a website. Unfortunately, it does not go as planned.

Notes:
at 0:54, this logo is fake, I couldn't find any logo for OCIIO (probably because it was short-lived and merged into CMS soon after)
at 1:22, this merge moved technical staff from OCIIO to OIS, the Office of Information Services (now OIT, the Office of Information Technology) which is a subdivision of CMS. The bulk of the staff was put into a new CMS subdivision, CCIIO (Center for Consumer Information and Insurance Oversight), which was just OCIIO renamed and operating under CMS.
