Abstract
John Schmidt's project to convert the information system of his auto parts distribution business is in real trouble, putting his company at risk. He must decide what his decision problem is and set appropriate objectives as well as create a good set of alternatives from which to choose. This case can be used in courses on decision making as well as those that address management of information technology projects.
