You are the IT Manager of a small financial services firm that is in the process of upgrading its content management system. You have been tasked to plan an IT budget and staffing for the upgrade of this system. You do not know what system the organization will select, but do know it is sorely needed, as the existing system is consistently breaking down.
Please provide a comprehensive budget for the year 2016 that includes estimates for the following components:
1. Estimate Consultant (temporary) staffing to implement such a system (including PMs)
2. Estimate development costs, assume 1000 concurrent users
3. Estimate data conversion costs, assume you have 1TB of content data
4. Estimate Hardware costs
5. Estimate yearly costs for maintenance and support of this system
6. Estimate customization costs for system. Assume 10% customization.
7. Estimate software licensing costs
8. Estimate DR costs, assume that the data will be backed up offsite in the cloud and you have a hybrid cloud model.
9. Estimate full time operational staff costs for this system
**IMPORTANT** - Finally, defend your budget for this system. Provide rationale as to why the IT Governance and Budgeting committee should approve and fund this project. Give reasons why they need to make it a priority, identify an expected timeframe for implementation and identify why delivering this project in time is crucial to the business.
