Abstract: A computerized management system was developed in a large Soviet plant during the period when the central government of the former USSR had decided to increase the productivity of the industry by computerizing its management. The project was organized and funded under the restrictions of the strictly planned economic system, and this affected the principles used in developing hardware and software.
