1. The time frame of the Vandelay case is the late 1990s. Enterprise systems are taking off, but we don't really know a lot yet, and we're sort of advancing the discipline real-time as we go along. However, some were out in front of this challenge: Tom Davenport, for example.

" What was Vandelay doing correctly? What were they messing up on? For what they were messing up on, should they have known better at the time (late 1990s)? "
