A furniture manufacturer is looking for a showroom
 
  A committee decides that the new showroom should be close to their warehouse, have a loading dock for delivery trucks, and should have at least 5000 square feet of floor space. They would also like to move into a showroom that has skylights and glass partitions, but they do not consider these to be mandatory criteria. Based on these criteria, they shortlist the options that met all of the essential criteria. Although its report is due soon, the committee just realized that having a concrete floor was one essential criterion they had omitted. What is the most reasonable next step for the committee?
  (a) It should compare the options it has against one another to see which is most promising.
  (b) It should eliminate any current options that do not have concrete floors.
  (c) It should realize that the loading dock is more important than the amount of floor space.
  (d) It should start the search over with this new criterion in mind.
  (e) It should move on; the concrete floor was not in the original list of essentials.
