Funny thing is, as far as we can tell this is how that project was done, minus the contract size sorts of splits. The government didn't hire a integrator, HHS's CMS took on that responsibility including integration testing.

Of course the minor fly in the ointment is that CMS didn't even vaguely have the expertise to pull this off; the Pentagon can do this for medium sizes weapons projects (which are a rather different field), but no one else in the US government has been said to have it.
