It was the ultimate corporate nightmare . A high-profile flagship project – a flagship not merely for the company, but a flagship high-technology programme for an entire continent – went embarrassingly, expensively, and very publicly wrong. And it was a simple industrial-isation issue, a production ramp-up problem, and something that should never have happened.

person who makes a design that works with as few original ideas as
possible" - Freeman Dyson
