answer:It sounds like M*A*S*H, and your department is the Swamp and it is about to have Frank Burns move in. From experience in working in similar situations, it often just takes additional time to explain why things are not being done by the book. We once had to write up a business plan on why the Canon typewriter we bought was not only saved the company time, but was cheaper than the Xerox-issued one that HQ sent to our office. The Feel/Felt/Found process can work wonders as well. I understand how you feel about our using brand A. We used felt the same way as well, at first. What we found is that brand B saves us time by getting the job done more quickly, thus saving the company money. (It works really well on children, too.)
