For teaching purposes, this is the case-only version of the HBR case study. The commentary-only version is reprint R1104Z. The complete case study and commentary is reprint R1104N. When a set of giant robotic arms developed for the International Space Station breaks down during a crisis, project manager Samantha Van Sant finds herself in the hot seat. Did her team compromise quality by pushing the contractors too hard on speed? How can she prevent future mishaps-should the arrangement with the contractors be renegotiated to include different incentives or more safeguards? Gary L. Moe, a director of McKinsey's Business Technology Office; Tom Quinly, president of aerospace contractor Curtiss-Wright Controls; and HBR readers weigh in on the speed-versus-quality quandary.
