Prototyping would be the most successful development method for this project because it allows for iterative development with frequent feedback sessions from the focus group users. Since the senior managers may change their requirements during development, prototyping allows for flexibility and the ability to quickly make changes to the tool. Additionally, the emphasis on creating a working prototype also aligns with the firm's desire to offer the tool as soon as possible.
