Why should my eventual ID model consider using front end analysis?
Reason 1) Front end analysis of a problem sets up the rest of the project. It allows someone to put the facts together and figure out where you need to go. It also helps determine what the actual problem is. Someone might think it might be a problem with personnel but in reality its the environment the personnel are in that causes poor work.
2) It allows you to figure out what power players you need to settle the problem, assuming there is one. One can figure out if you need or subtract things from the various issues of the problem, whether it be environmental or a problem with people involved with it.
3) Finally it allows you to come back at the end to examine were you successful in solving the problem. So if I know I need 10 new doors, and I only get 8 doors, we figure out what happened and why we couldn't get the extra 2.
What can I take from chapter 6's to inform our model?
It allowed me to observe these models and help me figure out what these models did and didn't have in common. We can then build upon them, or go back and look at a certain area and examine it more carefully.

Brendan,
Good reasons for including FEA in your model. You have clearly shown that this is critical to the understanding of a problem. I agree that if careful analysis is not done a problem can be 'misdiagnosed(is there such a word?).
As it relates to Chapter 6, Is there anything in particular that you intend to use in your model.
I liked how you used the beginning, middle, and end to break down how front end analysis can help you with your project. I think the most important point you brought up was how you are able to come back in the ends and examine if you were successful or not.
