This Lenovo ThinkPad Laptop is the best mobile and office workstation computer solution and will be used by every employee at Feel Your
Pain. The laptop comes with a 14” display with slim bezels in a roughly 14” form factor. It is lightweight, portable, and has
optimized battery performance with an all AMD processing hardware. This means that the combination of an AMD CPU and
integrated GPU will allow for increased optimization in both performance and battery life. The laptop includes 16Gb of ram, which
is certainly overkill for what FYP needs as a company, but was requested by the client. In addition, the laptop has a built in 256gb
SSD, which in combination with the 256gb M.2 SSD installed in the employee’s docking stations will be plenty for at least 3 years.
THe device has plenty of in/out ports including, 2 USB C (both on the same side for optimized speed/compatibility with the docking
station), 1 usb A, 1 HDMI, and more. Because of the optimized battery life and portability all fit into a comfortably large 14” display
to meet mobile multitasking needs, this laptop will be great for mobile work as well as office work. Lastly, the laptop comes
installed with Windows 10 Pro, which will allow for better workstation management and security features for the IT Support
Manager.

The Microsoft 365 Business Premium is the best economic business solution for secure workstation management software as well
as collaborative suite of productivity apps.
On the security side, this service includes identity and access management, endpoint management, information protection, and
identity-driven security. All of this is based on Microsoft's Intune cloud service, which is a mobile device management and mobile
application management service. Intune is directly integrated with Azure Active Directory and Azure Information Protection. This allows for
network administrators, such as FYP’s IT Support Manager, to control conditional based user access as well as deploy various software and
configure security protocols on managed devices. This can be a 100% cloud based solution so that FYP does not need to manage or
maintain any backend software or hardware. Intune will work well for FYP’s security needs because we are recommending FYP to supply
organization owned devices, which will allow for full device and security control by IT management. This mitigates the risks of employees
potentially creating security leaks that might otherwise happen if employees opt-in using their own personal devices.
On the productivity and collaboration side, Microsoft’s 365 Business Premium package offers a full suite of productivity apps
including MS Word, Excel, Power Point, Publisher, and Access. In addition, this connects with each user’s included MS Outlook enables
email account. MS Outlook combines an email and calendar into one application that syncs with the users included OneDrive cloud based
storage solution. Through OneDrive, each user can store up to 1TB of data which also syncs with MS SharePoint, where user can share and
collaboratively edit any documents, spreadsheets, presentations, etc used in the suite of office applications. It also includes MS Teams and
Exchange where users can organize collaborative projects and groups in a customizable capacity to work for any team, all backed up by and
secured through the MS Exchange service which securely shares this data.
This solution is perfect for FYP’s needs and is well worth the more premium cost of $22.00 per month/per user. In fact, this cost is
minimal compared to creating and using one's own server and will allow FYP to achieve smooth device management, control, collaboration,
and productivity.

This dock is the key to my proposal for Feel Your Pain’s portable and future proof IT solution. This laptop dock will be kept at the
desk of every employee plugged into the monitor, keyboard, mouse, and webcam listed below, which will allow employees to come to
work and had a full desktop like setup where they can even utilize both the monitor and laptop as a dual screen work station. In addition,
what makes this set up future proof is the addition of a specific M.2 NVMe SSD slot within the dock that will hold an extra 500gb of data
for each employee to use so they do not take up all the storage on their laptops. With the utilization of this, if an employee breaks their
laptop or Feel Your Pain decides to upgrade their PCs in the future, they can store all their essential data on the SSD drive housed within
the dock, including back ups/restore points of their current laptop. Only a few of these docks will be bought as replacements as they are
not a portable product and have a low risk of breaking.

This 60W usb C charger will be placed at each employee's workstation and will be plugged directly into the USB C PD input in their dock to
