Stack
Nonprofit Campus Infrastructure Refresh
Client
Nonprofit Organization (Multi-building campus, 150 staff)
Problem
Aging infrastructure limiting operational efficiency. No documentation of existing systems. Budget-conscious refresh needed.
Approach
- Document existing infrastructure (as-found drawings)
- Prioritize refresh based on operational impact
- Phased implementation matching budget cycles
- Standardize equipment and configurations
- Implement MIB for ongoing lifecycle management
- Knowledge transfer to internal IT staff
Deliverables
- As-found and as-built documentation
- Phased infrastructure refresh (priority areas first)
- Standardized equipment and configurations
- Network monitoring and lifecycle tracking
- Budget forecasting for future phases
- Staff training on new systems
Outcome
Priority areas refreshed within budget. Clear documentation enables internal IT to support systems. MIB services provide lifecycle tracking and refresh planning for remaining phases. No surprises, predictable costs.
