“I hope everyone you’ve encountered at MRE has treated you well. Here’s a short review of some of the ways you can access our organization through HyperCase. The reception area at MRE contains the key links to the rest of our organization. Perhaps you’ve already discovered these on your own, but I wanted to remind you of them now because I don’t want to get so engrossed in the rest of our organizational problems that I forget to mention them.

“The empty doorway you see is a link to the next room, which we call the East Atrium. You have probably noticed that all open doorways are links to adjacent rooms. Notice the building map displayed in the reception area. You are free to go to public areas such as the canteen, but as you know, you must have an employee escort you into a private office. You cannot go there on your own.

“By now you have probably noticed the two documents and the computer on the small table in the reception area. The little one is the MRE internal phone directory. Just click on an employee name, and if that person is in, he or she will grant you an interview and a tour of the office. I leave you to your own devices in figuring out what the other document is.

“The computer on the table is on and displays the web page for MRE. You should take a look at the corporate site and visit all the links. It tells the story of our company and the people who work here. We’re quite proud of it and have gotten positive feedback about it from visitors.

“If you have had a chance to interview a few people and see how our company works, I’m sure you are becoming aware of some of the politics involved. We are also worried, though, about more technical issues, such as what constitutes feasibility for a training project and what does not.”

Snowden Evans has asked you to help prepare a proposal for a new project tracking system for the Training Unit. Briefly discuss the technical, economic, and operational feasibility of each alternative for a proposed project tracking system for the Training Unit.
