Founded in 1876, one of the largest North American chocolate manufacturers, Hershey's undertook a project to implement SAP R3 ERP software. However, nothing went according to plan. In the end, its new order-taking and distribution computer system which was a $112 million combination of software from ERP maker SAP, CRM provider Siebel and supply chain software from Manugistics, failed to deliver $100 million worth of Kisses and Jolly Ranchers for Halloween.
