Project Overview:

You are a new administrator for the Contoso Corporation, which is a leading producer of smart devices for homes. You need to develop an automated installation strategy.
The Contoso Corporation design team is close to finishing up a new product for home security monitoring and medical monitoring equipment. As a new administrator, you are called into your manager's office to discuss this exciting new project. He explains that the product is centered around a server that collects and analyzes information from wireless nodes around the house or worn by an individual. To keep track of data, the server will use Windows Internal Database (WID). As part of the rollout, hundreds of servers will need to be prepared for the product rollout and additional servers will be needed to replace sold inventory.

Your manager wants you to design a solution that can create hundreds of new servers each month. You must work with the design team to create an automated server installation plan that will support this project. The servers will have to be tested by the quality control team before being shipped to customers.

Create a proposal that includes the following sections:

- Purpose of the Project
- Requirements of the Project
- The Proposed Solution

When writing the proposal, you must explain the reasoning behind your choices.

In working on this proposal, you need to refer to Server Lab 1 and Server Lab 2 you were asked to complete and submit as part of lab assessment in this course. You should use those labs as a guide in preparing this proposal.
