Just the last feature, the previous ones were completed and deployed. The department shifted focus which left us with a small window to finish up the project and we weren't able to get all the features done in that time frame. Had the department shift not happened, we could have finished within about 2-3 months.
I actually think we should have deployed without re-implement every existing feature, but enough to make it work for most use cases (with an option for users to switch between old and new), but there was concern that we'd drive up support costs during our pivot and they wanted to avoid the distraction.
So the project wasn't a failure, but a department-wide pivot put restrictions on the project and made it less attractive to finish.
