It should be, especially if based on an OpenSource, COTS software.  However,
easy and cheap are often two different things.

Then you run into 2 common issues with govn't IT solutions.

1) Nothing is ever truely secure.
2) You can take soemthing that works well in the private sector, but doesn't
work quite as well in a Govt/DoD application.  Take their suite of health care
/ Electronic Health Record applications.

AHLTA then MHS Genesis.  Surprisingly the VA has a much loved EHR called VA
VISTA, that was home grown, and so far the VA has been successful in not being
pushed to adopt the new DoD EHR, even though congressionaly mandaded.
