It really sounds like the folks your working with need to spend some time
learning OO design methods.  Perhaps some training would be a better use
of the company's budget. One of the best tools I've found to learn on is
Playground, you can get it at http://www.oi.com/. It's either free or
very cheap but, if folks need a learning tool it's a good choice.

Cheers

BTW: Your right about not making any real progress until there is a
systematic approach. But, perhaps even more important is a clear vision
of product your trying to create. Without a good product that the market
will buy, your toast even with the bast engineering.
