Executive Summary Introduction In this report we are going to outline the business collaboration with Dr Simmon’s clinic to solve one of their technology problems. One of our team members met with Dr Simmons at City Business Breakfast. We received an email from Dr Simmons in which he mentioned that he wants some recommendations for a new networking and hardware system. So we are writing this proposal to let them know that we can assist them with our specialized services to fulfil their requirements. Dr Simmons is running a medical practice clinic with a total staff of 30. They have 20 systems running in their internal network with automation softwares. Current Situation According to Dr. Simmons their medical practice has outgrown current hardware and software systems. So, they want some restructuring advice or recommendations for a new system. They also want to know the scope of works for upgrading the current network and hardware. Furthermore, information they provided us confirms that the database system being used currently has limited storage capacity and needs to be extended as well
