Desktop Optimization Using Windows 7 and Microsoft Office 2010

Software Logic offers the expertise and resources to promote a successful migration to the Windows 7 operating system, Windows Internet Explorer 8, and Microsoft Office 2010 as well as implementation of Microsoft Application Virtualization capabilities by means of consistent, reproducible processes and tools that can improve efficiency and require less effort to maintain.

 

Solution Overview

The Software Logic Production Pilot Jumpstart Offering provides customers with the opportunity to conduct in-depth discovery of requirements and to test criteria through a multi-phase pilot that represents a production environment of 500 desktop users. Software Logic offers Production Pilot Jumpstart as a fixed-scope and time-limited Offering. Typical duration of this engagement is ten weeks.

How It Works

To maximize return on investment, the Offering is implemented in conjunction with your resources: personnel, intellectual investments, and the existing infrastructure where possible. Software Logic provides decision-making expertise based on technical considerations and on an up-to-date Microsoft project roadmap, which takes into consideration your business and technical requirements.


Solution Benefits

Conducting a pilot deployment before rolling out new desktop solutions across your organization can help you avoid potential challenges and minimize risk and time spent. A pilot is generally more in-depth than a simple proof of concept: it offers real-world customer data and user feedback to help define requirements and criteria. Software Logic consultants will guide you using best practices, product expertise, and implementation experience to promote higher efficiency with a formal and structured approach.


Methodology and Deliverables

Production Pilot Jumpstart consists of a set of modules using a structured delivery framework to enhance your understanding of the environment and new capabilities. During the engagement, Software Logic will deliver functional specifications, design documents, and a deployment plan.
