Management responds by assigning more and more programmers to the development effort, but it ultimately fails. As part of the liquidation, the product ends up in the hands of a competitor, who severely mismanages it.
Senior management comes in, kicks some heads, and gets the project back on track.

Generations of hacks, fixes, patches, different operating systems, and changes of management have produced an application that is completely unmaintainable.
