Conduct a search in academic journals and trade publications for recent (within the past four years) examples or case studies of failed IT/IS projects and select a project in which poor communications played a major role in the failure. Do NOT use an older case from a more recent anthology or collection of case studies.  (Be sure to find a true project event, and NOT an ongoing operational example such as a call center contract, maintenance work, or cloud services.)

• Briefly describe the project and the parties involved.
• Identify how communication was not effective and how the poor communication contributed to the project's failure.
• Suggest how the project manager might have mitigated or avoided the causes of the project's failure using effective project management techniques discussed in the course.
