Proposal
[I propose how we might enhance the business systems of your office. First, Windows is the operating system used by most of our personnel. The average employee already has proficient skills within that platform as training is quick and cost effective. The office should use the same operating system so that employees can exchange documents with relative ease. The office also has cloud-based servers. Our employees will have the option of working from both the office as well as from home. Office computers and the cloud can both function as their own backup systems. Both the needed performance and security that the business needs will be maintained via cloud servers.
By using cloud servers, you can improve IT efficiency without a financial burden on the business.
The system's software should constantly be updated, often with new hardware to remain at optimum consistency. I chose running the entire office with Windows 10 because it is a software powerhouse that
still exceeds Windows 11. An advantage of having all stations the same is the ease of any future upgrades to Operating Systems. The application portion comes last. I chose Microsoft Office, Adobe, Oracle or SAP, virus protection, and PeopleSoft HR because they were required by all the staff.]
