n 1999 Hershey experienced a
software conversion that cost the company upwards of $150
million in sales. That fall they rolled out an SAP R/3 system
that tried to simultaneously implement ERP, CRM and supply chain
management systems. What the candy giant ended up with was a
crisis in which product deliveries were botched for the critical
Halloween season. SAP ended up with bad press and an angry
customer. Neither Hershey or SAP has provided details as to what
caused the system failure in 1999; however both worked together
on the fix and the two companies maintained their relationship.
