.. Copyright (C) ALbert Mietus; 2023 .. _SIA-demo-H5: ================ 5) How To Choose ================ .. seealso:: This *last* chapter is a short overview and/or tips on “**How** to choose”. .. Caution:: Don’t advise on which solution is best! Plz, do not get trapped in the pitfall to advise which solution *is* the best-- all should be ‘great’. But *‘great’*, for other (business) reasons. Some are cheaper, some are faster, etc. You merely advise on how the PO (client/...) shall select one of the solutions. “When T2M is most important, ...”, or “When you target the top market, ...”, etc. -- :ref:`AgileSIA-5chapters` We have presented three completely different solutions, each with its pros & cons. All do fulfil all needs as given in the 1ste chapter [:ref:`SIA-demo-H1`]. |BR| Now, it is time to decide which one you prefer to continue with -- as a polite reminder: [:need:`BUMPER_April1`]. So, hope for a quick decision. Therefore, we present some tips. Tips ==== Which requirements are most prominent ------------------------------------- Even though all requirements are met in every solution, some needs might have a bit more weight. So, let’s go over the most relevant ones. .. rubric:: :need:`BUMPER_chrome` & :need:`BUMPER_SafetyImago` When we like to impress on looks, the “Oldsmobile fenders” [:ref:`SIA-demo-H2`] beets all other solutions. Whereas [:ref:`SIA-demo-H4`] is the most safe solution. The brand-new chrome solution [:ref:`SIA-demo-H3`] is a nice combination for both requirements: safe and shiny. .. rubric:: :need:`BUMPER_April1` Solution “:ref:`SIA-demo-H2`” involves finding a second-hand “Oldsmobile bumper”. This should be easy but has a risk on timing. So, whenever we like to minimize risk, this solution isn’t preferable. |BR| Whereas the high-volume [:ref:`SIA-demo-H4`] option is very, very fast and has no risk of meeting the deadline at all; therefore we even mentioned it as a backup scenario. .. rubric:: :need:`BUMPER_Green` As the bumper is important but not the most expensive part, you can also consider to play on safe. For example, use the cost-effective fast [:ref:`SIA-demo-H4`] solution as a backup, and select one of the other two as the main solution. |BR| This guarantees a good bumper on time. And enables a risk-free great option. .. tip:: Skip :need:`BUMPER_1is2` It’s obvious, two bumpers are needed. All solutions are in harmony here. So the is no need to handle it here. Other factors ------------- .. rubric:: scalable & future Although it, is not a need, this ‘first eco-friendly muscle car’ is a first. And we assume (many) more will follow. Therefore we spend a few words on that too. [:ref:`SIA-demo-H3`] & [:ref:`SIA-demo-H4`] are the most scalable. There is no upper limit on the number of bumpers we can deliver. |BR| Price-wise, the plastic solution is cheaper. However, the piece price of a (new, labour-intensive) chrome bumper will go down when volume rises.
