Problem/Opportunity

ABC company has had serious challenges emanating from its hardware system, which has posed major shortfalls in the proper functioning of the company. The software system cannot function well with the current old-hardware in place. The central processing unit, computer data storage, monitor, motherboard, graphic card, keyboard, and sound card are not completely compatible with the current software and therefore the need to deploy a more current hardware. In the past, the ABC company staffs have been raising complains of non-response from the current hardware to the newly innovated software in the market. There has also been a total failure from some other parts like motherboard and keyboard of the computer system. Therefore, deploying a new hardware system in the company would enable solve the challenges ABC staff were undergoing with the old hardware. The company programs and other activities would run very smoothly with the newly deployed hardware in place (Kerzner & Kerzner, 2017).

Goal

The main goal of the new hardware deployment is to ensure ABC company and their staffs easily get operations executed with advance technological appliances. All its software and hardware are compatible and easy work.

Objectives

· To deploy the most current hardware system to ABC company

· Ensure compatibility between the current software and the newly deployed hardware.

· To provide all ABC Company staffs access the newly deployed hardware system.

· Improve the overall functionality and efficient program progress of ABC Company by hardware deployment.

· Decommission the already existing hardware system.

Success Criteria

· The new hardware is deployed, and all old hardware decommissioned.

· All ABC staff can efficiently work and increase the productivity of the company.

· The new hardware system becomes very reliable and efficient for use by the ABC Company.

· The efficient flow of work is once again assured by the newly deployed hardware (Kerzner & Kerzner, 2017).

Assumptions/Risks/Obstacles.

· A brief training on ABC staff would be carried out for acquaintance with the newly deployed hardware.

· An assumption is that it would take a little longer time for the new hardware to be fully deployed and the staff to get used to it.

· Absenteeism by any staff during the training on the use of the new hardware would be very risky.

· Availability of knowledgeable staff on matters deployment of new hardware would create a major obstacle during the actual deployment (Burgess, 2018).
