This is a gross mis-appropriation and application of MVP from "Lean Startup". Its use is for startups (not established corps) to learn about a problem space and find out what potential customers would be willing to pay for.

An internal tool doesn't have these aspects. What's being labelled 'MVP' here is a first fully usable version of an internal tool--quite different.

Folks can go redefining terms and writing about it, just don't expect everyone to follow along.
