This case discusses the adoption of a web initiative by a leading Indian integrated healthcare provider. By tracing events associated with the project over a two-year period, the case highlights how a technologically simple IT adoption ran into difficulties because of lack of a comprehensive analysis during the adoption decision process, which was largely guided by a perceived opportunity to exploit favorable stock market conditions.
