One of my "fights" at work is prototypes. A prototype can be build very quickly (cheaply) and can exhibit many problems that may be overseen by the "heavy design process". A prototype is a marvelous way to get feedback from users very early in the projects.

The only downside to prototypes is that then the managers don't understand why the actual project takes so much longer and end up asking to just go with the prototype for production.

Get better managers.

I've never had this problem.
