Comprehensive Authentic Assessment: Plan Deliverables

For this course AAP is a response for customer's RFP or customer's design requirements and type of solution used in network design. Typically, a customer's RFP includes following topics.

• Business goals for the project

• Scope of the project

• Information on existing network

• Information on new applications

• Technical requirements, including scalability, availability, network performance, security, manageability, usability, adaptability, and affordability

• Warranty requirements for products

• Environmental or architectural constraints

• Training and support requirements

• Preliminary schedule with milestones and deliverables

• Legal contractual terms and conditions

Your AAP should include responses to all of customer's RFP and should include logical and physical component pf the design, information on technologies used in design solution, and proposal to implementing the design. The following sections describe the format of AAP:

A: Executive Summary (ES)

The executive summary briefly states and emphasizes the major points of the customer's requirements. The ES should be no more than one page and should be directed at key decision maker of the project who will decide whether to accept your design. The ES can have minimum technical information but NO technical details. The technical information should be summarized and organized in order of the customer's highest-priority objectives for the design project. The ES should be organized customer top requirements.

B: Project Goal

This section should state the primary goal for the network design. The goal should be business oriented and related to an overall objective that organization has to become more successful in core business. Your objective is to make it clear to decision maker that you understand the primary purpose and importance of the network design project. Below is an example of project goal was written for an actual design.

"The goal of this project is to develop a wide area network (WAN) that will support new high bandwidth and low-delay multimedia applications. The new applications are key to the successful implementation of new training programs for the sales force. The new WAN facilitate of increasing sales in the USA by 50% in the next fiscal year."

C: Project Scope

The project scope section provides information on extent of the project, including a summary of departments, field offices networks that will be affected by the project. The project scope section specifies whether the project is new network or modifications to an existing network. It indicates whether the design is for a single network segment, a set of LANs, a building or campus network, or a set of WAN or remote access network, VoIP, or enhancing security

D: Design Requirements

In this section, you provide major business and technical requirements of the network in priority order. In business goal explain the role network design will play in helping an organization provide better products and services.

The technical requirement section explains in general term how propose technical improvement is better than or meet the customer requirement.

Network Application: This section lists and characterizes the new and existing network applications.

E: Design Solution:

This section includes:

• Logical Network topology which include high level one or more drawings to illustrate logical architecture of the proposed network
• Recommended LAN and Wireless design to implement Client's key requirements.
• Recommended Voice over IP solution,
• Recommend solution to implement client's key security requirements.
• Recommend solution to implement client's key Active Directory requirements

F: Implementation Plan:

The implementation plan includes your recommendations for deploying the network design. The design implementation description should be detailed as possible. Implementation of a network design consists of several phases (buy and install hardware, configure system, test system and so forth). Each phase consists of several steps, and documentation for each step should contain the following:

• A project schedule
• Plans with vendors or service providers for installation of links, equipment or services
• Plan or recommendations for outsourcing the implementation or management of the network
• A plan for communicating the design to end users, network administrators, and management
• A training plan for network administrators and end users
• A plan for measuring the effectiveness of the design after it has been implemented
• A list of known risks that could delay the project
• A fallback plan if the network implementation fails
• A plan for evolving the network design as new application requirements goals arise.

G: Project Budget

This section should contain the funds the customer needs for equipment purchases, maintenance, and support agreements, service contracts, software licenses, training, and staffing. The budget can also include consulting fees and outsourcing expenses.

H: Design Document Appendix

Most design documents include one or more appendixes that present supplemental information about the design and implementation. Supplemental information can include detailed topology drawings, device configurations, network addressing and naming details and comprehensive results from the testing of the network design. You can include business information such as list of contact name, numbers and e-mail addresses. The appendix can include warranty on devices, legal agreement, and any information which is not critical for design, but you have noted in your gathering information process.

Writing Instructions

Paper must have a minimum of 40 pages and a maximum of 45 pages of text excluding the required title page and bibliography and appendixes. Text must be Times New Roman, 12 fonts, 1" margin on all sides, and double spaced.
