Following a failed ERP implementation, this state government agency was analyzing the feasibility of a lawsuit against its software selection and implementation partner.
The government agency had contracted with the consulting firm to assist in the replacement of its tax collection systems but was forced to stop work after nearly two years of delays and inadequate staffing.
Additional issues included:
Panorama was tasked with determining whether the situation was reasonable, whether the consulting firm had met the terms of the contract, and whether legal action was warranted.
This involved performing a comprehensive, objective audit of several thousand documents related to the case, including project documentation, emails, project plans, and other materials.
Ultimately, Panorama developed a more than 70-page analysis and argument for the legal team.
Some of the key findings included:
The report was used as the foundation for moving forward with the lawsuit, which will attempt to recover tens of millions of dollars in consulting fees and lost business benefits.
