I've never dealt with SSA other than as a consumer. However I have had to 
deal with the DOI's IMARS (Incident Management Analysis and Reporting 
System) that was deployed around 2012. Great fun!

Then there is the FBI's NIBRS (National Incident Based Reporting System) 
that is meant to replace the UCR (Uniform Crime Reports) system that went 
back to the 1920s.  The format for submitting data is a moving target and 
crime in the US is under-reported since many agencies can't manage to 
submit their data successfully.

Based on those two, I give the chance of updating the SSA system in less 
than 10 years a very low probability. The US government's attention span 
is more like 10 days than 10 years so good luck. Unlike the other two CFs 
I have a personal interest in continuing to receive my checks every month.
