Found these two.
Anyone seen others?
I bought this book soon after it was published.
It’s a detailed study of some major IT projects, doesn’t draw “lessons” & rules like
I’d expect of an MBA Case Study.

Based on their own experiences of in-depth case studies of software projects in
international corporations,
in this bookthe authors present detailed practical guidelines on
the preparation, conduct, design and reporting of case studies of software engineering.
This is the first software engineering specific book on thecase study research method.

Case studies for software engineers
May 2006
<https://dl.acm.org/doi/10.1145/1134285.1134497>
The topic of this full-day tutorial was the correct use and interpretation of case
studies as an empirical research method.
Using an equal blend of lecture and discussion, it gave attendees
a foundation for conducting, reviewing, and reading case studies.
There were lessons for software engineers as researchers who
conduct and report case studies, reviewers who evaluate papers,
and practitioners who are attempting to apply results from papers.
The main resource for the course was the book
Case Study Research: Design and Methods by Robert K. Yin.
This text was supplemented with positive and negative examples from the literature.
