The literature is replete with software horror stories. Despite all the planning and case studies, software projects all too frequently fall short of expectations or utterly fail. In this article, a case study is made of a project in which software was delivered on time and under budget. The factors contributing to the success are emphasized as well as some factors which prevented an even greater success. This article describes the development of a General Electric Company product, but the opinions expressed herein are solely those of the author. The procedures described and comments made do not reflect an official endorsement by General Electric Company or its employees.
