Facts:
Engineer
A, a chemical engineer with no facilities design and construction experience,
receives a solicitation in the mail with the following information:
"
Engineers today cannot afford to pass up a single job that comes by - including
construction projects that may be new or unfamiliar.
Now
- - thanks to a revolutionary new CD-ROM - specifying, designing and costing
out any construction project is as easy as pointing and clicking your mouse -
no matter your design experience. For instance, never designed a highway
before? No problem. Just point to the ŒHighways' window and click.
Simply
sign and return this letter today and you' ll be among the first engineers to
see how this full-featured interactive library of standard design can help you
work faster than ever and increase your firm' s profits."
Engineer
A orders the CD-ROM and begins to offer facilities design and construction
services.
