Based on Paul’s and Ceil’s enthusiasm for prototyping and what you know about Pyramid’s needs, would you support construction of a prototype? Why or why not? Formulate your decision and response in a letter to Paul LeGon and Ceil Toom. Present a justification for your decision based on overall criteria that should be met to justify prototyping.

“As you know, we’re an enthusiastic group. We’re not a dynasty yet, but we’re working on it,” Paul LeGon tells you. Paul (introduced in Consulting Opportunity 2.3), at 24 years of age, is the “boy king” of Pyramid, Inc., a small but successful independent book publishing firm that specializes in paperback books outside of the publishing mainstream. As a systems analyst, you have been hired by Pyramid, Inc., to help develop a computerized warehouse inventory and distribution information system.
