As the fourth member of the systems analysis team, what actions do you think should be taken? In a one- or two-paragraph email message to your teammates, answer the following questions: Should more features be added to the hatchery system prototype before giving it to the hatchery managers to experiment with? How important is the rapid development of the prototype? What is the trade-offs involved in adding more features to the prototype versus getting a more basic prototype to the client when it was promised? Complete your message with a recommendation.

“Just be a little patient. I think we need to add a few more features before we turn it over to them. Otherwise, this whole prototype will sink, not swim,” says Sam Monroe, a member of your systems analysis team. All four members of the team are sitting together in a hurriedly called meeting, and they are discussing the prototype that they are developing for an information system to help managers monitor and control water temperature, number of fish released, and other factors at a large, commercial fish hatchery.
