RFP for Active Directory Redesign at Initech, Inc.
Executive Overview
Initech is a financial software developer that provides software and services to half of the Fortune 500. The organization currently has four major offices located in Austin, Detroit, Seattle, and Washington, DC. Two smaller offices are co-located with the organization's largest customer. Those offices are in Miami and Denver. A sales team of more than a hundred work across the United States, primarily from their own homes. Initech currently outsources its entire distribution function to Penetrode Logistics. Initech has experienced a combination of growth and disaster in the last 3 years. The organization's technology, specifically the server and Active Directory environment, has not been well designed or planned during this time. Internal growth has put a huge strain on the servers. Mergers have left the organization disconnected. Disasters have caused extensive loss of data and productivity. Management has decided to invest in a major overhaul of the server and Active Directory environment.
