A prominent law firm that has more than 30 offices located worldwide is considering going to a cloud service for all of its document desktop applications, storage and information management needs. Desktops will not possess any applications or stored files and all mobile activity will require web access or use of a jump drive. The firm partners expect client billing revenue will increase by 35% while costs will be reduced by 20%. Identify the revenue and costs considerations and other relevant issues that should be considered. What do you reccommend the firm do with relation to the cloud. Discuss quantitative/qualitative aspects. (This is a make or buy decision).
Identify any tools such as regression analysis or CVP that will support the decision making process related to the question. If needed, use calculations or lists i.e. differential/avoidable costs as required for each question. Must list differential/avoidable costs! Please be as detailed and lengthy as possible.
