Evaluation by Group 4
(B) Group 2:Jaw
              
           (C)(1) Problem definition and selection:11
                  Not very specific in addressing the goal.Implied propsal
                  not adequately reflected in the procedure.
              (2) Proposed spectroscopic solution:15                     
                  Fluorescence spectroscopy seems to be the best choice to
                  analyse the type of material.
              (3) Market survey:10
                  Five major companies were contacted.
              (4) Class selection:8
                  One of us was not convinced of the need for as much
                  sophiscation in instrument.    
              (5) Detailed comparison of alternatives:Characteristics:8.5
                  The comparison has been made but not perfect.
              (6) Completeness of quotes:8
                  No need to mention of shipping ,set up costs ie site
                  need to be specifically prepared in other words what 
                  conditions are required.
              (7) Costs:7.5
                  Quotes not clear presentation confusing.
              (8) Pros and cons:9.5
                  Based on information supplied comparison was adequate
                  and decision well supported.
              (9) Overal impression:8
                  Would probably approve with only some clarification of a
                  few points:(ie How much data is likely to be generated?     
                  How useful is synchronous scanning?Is sophisticated
                  computerization really necessary?).

Evaluation by Group 5
A) Evaluators:  Group 5,Alcohol Protecting Group
B) Evaluees:  Group 2 JAW
C)
   1.  Definition and selection: 13 points
More elaboration needed regarding the realistic company situation for need
this instrument.  Analyzing for metabolites is a realistic situation.
   2.  Solution:  12 points
Argument on why to use Fluorescence Spect. is OK but perhaps GC-MS would
have been worth considering.  
   3. Market Screening:  10 points
Fulfilled the necessary search and we especially like the short
description that went with each company's instrument.
   4.  Class Selection:  7 points
There was not clear separation between the classes of instruments that
they were looking to purchase.
   5.  Characteristics:  10 points
The extra table with more information regarding the qualities of each
instrument was helpful.  They clearly stated and compared the three most
important characteristics of the instruments.
   6.  Completeness:   5 points
The quote price is difficult to read in paragraph form.  Hard to tell what
price goes with what instrument.  Why didn't you a table here, it looked
good elsewhere and helped to clarify.
   7.  Costs:  5 points
Same argument as above, plus no information on cells and that type of
supply are included.
   8.  Pros and Cons: 7 points
The conclusion in general could be better stated. The decision to buy the
LS-50 seem rational.    
   9.  Overall:  7 points
The first part of the discussion was very good.  The price quotes and
final decision just need a little more clarification. A suggestion would
be to set up the price quote as a chart.  It would make your whole final
argument easier to follow.
