one of the many references to half-life and black mesa. i noclipped it for better image quality, transcription for your convenience:

============================

Dollar$ and SENSE:
Competing with BLACK MESA
For DoD and Government-wide
Acquisition Contracts

============================

What is BLACK MESA?
+ 2.59% of ALL DoD contracts
+ 10 Billion in Federal Dollars Annually
+ 12% From Full & Open Competition
+ 88% From No-Bids or Excluded-Sources Bids
+ Not bound by Govt Performance & Results Act

============================

5 Year Review: GSA Schedules
Proposed / Awarded
Black Mesa / Aperture

============================

A Case Study: Genetic Lifeform and Disk Operating System
+ Defense Logistics Agency solicits bids for development of fuel system icing inhibitor (FSII)
+ Black Mesa FSII proposal:
Costly - Black Mesa personnel overpaid given limited skillset / ambition
Design inhibits ice, nothing more
+ Aperture Proposal:
Less expensive
Bonus to DLA: Aperture FSII inhibits ice but is also:
- A fully functioning Disk Operating System
- Arguably alive

============================
