 KFC "crisis" - Falkirk Bairn
You run a successful business.
You decide to change a major step in your product delivery.

You go for the big bang approach - shut off supplier A & replace with supplier B & at the same time introduce a new computer system for collating requirements - no transition plan - no pilot testing in Wales, NE England.

And it goes wrong - Surprise!!

in 1999/2000 the SQA( Scotland Exam Body) tried to amalgamate 2 Exam systems - re-classify qualifications - introduce a new computer system. Course reclassification over ran, software could not register students, pupils sat their exams & they could not process results. In the end they ran school by school spreadsheets & printed certificates. Got IBM in and spent £40m to get out of their hole.
