Network Upgrade Plan

For this assignment, you will apply telecommunication and network technical knowledge in the creation of a network upgrade plan. To create this plan you will assess your leadership role as the IT Project Manager in the design and implementation phases of this network upgrade project.

For this project, you will assume the role of one of the Senior IT Project Managers for Mont Saint Michelle Consulting Company (MSMCC) working in the IT professional services arm of the company. Your firm has been hired by an existing company to assist them in upgrading their current network. The existing company has three office locations: New York, NY, Denver, CO, and Palo Alto, CA. Each location consists of a two-story building that includes local wired and wireless access to about 50 employees. The current wireless setup is insufficient in terms of protocols, security, and encryption levels. All three sites are connected via a wide area network (WAN) to help carry data, voice, and video. The throughput on this current environment is T1. The firm is looking at MSMCC for your expert skills in this type of network upgrade and wants the best value solutions in order to make the most financially responsible and sustainable decision. As the senior IT project manager on this project, you need to work with your team to come up with a network upgrade plan to solve their outdated technology issues.
