01
People and applications
Identify the teams, locations and business applications involved. Record the tasks that depend on the existing system and the changes users need.
Business infrastructure planning
Plan the systems your business depends on every day.
Bring your applications, devices, connectivity and access responsibilities into one clear picture. The right infrastructure decision starts with the work your organisation needs to keep moving.
Understand the environment before changing it
02
Networks and hosted services
Review connectivity, local networks, cloud applications and hosting dependencies together. The suitable approach depends on the workload and operating environment.
03
Access and accountability
Identify who administers each system and how access is granted, reviewed and removed. Keep company ownership and supplier responsibilities clear.
Plan for everyday operation
01
Backups and recovery
Agree what needs backup, where copies are kept, who checks them and how a recovery would be verified. A backup label alone does not establish a working recovery process.
02
Changes and maintenance
Record the responsibilities for updates, configuration changes and recurring checks. Discuss the effect of maintenance on staff and customers before implementation.
03
Documentation and handover
Make service details, system boundaries and operating instructions available to the authorized people who will maintain the environment.
Turn the requirements into a practical scope.
Share the current environment, the business problem and the constraints. Implementation work and any ongoing support should be defined in the agreed quotation.

Plan around the way your team works.
Record the operating environment
Include the teams, locations, important applications and local connectivity arrangements involved. Where continuity of power or internet affects the requirement, describe the existing provision and the impact of an interruption. These facts help define a useful scope without assuming every organisation has the same setup.
Plan operation as well as installation
Assign responsibility for access, updates, backups and recovery checks. Record which subscriptions, hardware or external services are required and who owns them. An implementation proposal should distinguish the initial project from ongoing support and any separately agreed site work.
