Barry Joe from Superior Manufacturing has called on you once again to ask for your advice. He tells you that several of his recent decisions have not gone well and he asks for your analysis of his decision making. After reviewing Barry's decision making process you discover that he has been making his decisions too quickly without taking the time to ensure he is choosing the best solution. You recommend ways that Calvin can improve on this. You also recommend that Barry invest in an IT system that will display up-to-date company information and will include analytical tools to help him deal with decisions that would otherwise be difficult to solve. A few months later Barry tells you that all the recommendations you made have worked very well. Superior Manufacturing is in a very good position and is finding new customers every day. Barry tells you that he thinks it's time that his company takes the next step and invests in advanced information technology to ensure its future success. Barry tells you that his company has amassed vast amounts of knowledge from doing business and he thinks maybe that advanced analytical software can be used to apply human-like reasoning to this knowledge. You recommend a system that you think can best help Barry and you explain how it can help him. Using the terms and concepts from your textbook, discuss the issues in this question and explain what you will say to Barry
